TAFA: The Textile and Fiber Art List
Made for people by people.
About
Married, three grown up kids, three beautiful grandchildren and still working three days a week in a the art department of a Special School. I have always stitched, I spent three years in art school in the sixties studying fashion design, and worked in the rag trade in the West End of London until the seventies. I have also always enjoyed painting and drawing, and now I combine my two passions, stitch and art and produce my textile pieces which I sell through my website,and also in local galleries.
Statement/Mission
Three year Diploma in Fashion Design, I worked first as an assistant designer pattern cutter, later as a designer. After time out for child rearing, I continued to use my stitching/art skills within the home, and for the last twenty years have worked in the art department of a secondary school for pupils with EBS Difficulties. Most of my spare time is spent creating my textile pieces, which I sell through my website, and in local galleries. My hope is that I will have more time to concentrate on this when I retire from my school work.
