Hiya,
I’m a writer of historical fiction and as part of my research into the textile industry in my area I became interested in weaving. In 2020 I bought a Saori floor loom and taught myself to weave. I have sold several of my ‘Art Scarves’, and have my lavender bags for sale in a couple of local shops. My ethos is primarily sustainability, so use eco yarns - usually from industry waste (dead stock).
Having already taken part in a collaborative exhibition with a woodblock printer, and a photographer in 2021, I’m really excited to bring the exhibition to Cheltenham in Nov. 23.
As a great believer in lifelong learning I was really pleased to find Domestika, and am already enjoying my first course with Cassandra Sabo :)
