About Delicate Stitches

Delicate Stitches

Textile Art, inspired by nature.

I am an artist based on the beautiful Solway Coast of South West Scotland and I'm constantly inspired by the natural world and our connection to it. I love to work with traditional textile skills such as embroidery, dyeing and felt making. I love to draw and experiment with different materials and techniques.

I've always loved birds and I'm still fascinated by them. I love to watch them, how they move, their colours and their patterns intrigue me. I turn my observations into drawings and embroideries, aiming to capture the character of the bird. I work mostly with natural fibres and recently I've been experimenting a lot with natural dyes and eco printing. The fabrics I colour in this way often find their way into my small textile hangings which are all about our journeys through life and the environment and also often incorporate found natural objects, such as shells and feathers.

I work from home in my studio overlooking the sea, which gives me lots of inspiration! My garden also provides me with colour for natural dyeing and lots of interesting plant and animal life to observe, draw and be inspired by. As well as my own work I run lots of workshops and I love being able to help other people explore and gain confidence in their own creativity.
