Warp & Weftware

I Started crafts in 1998 at Arts School starting in metal work, ceramics, I finally specialized in textiles design crafts. I started to learn to felt, and the first main project being felt wares. During this time I was a voluntary teaching assistant with an Art organization for the learning disabilities. I moved to Scotland and became interested in the textile history of the Strathmore area. From research this inspired me to learn traditional Scottish crafts. Starting with learning to spin my own fibres, the next stage came to with how to use the fibres I had created and this process developed in to teaching myself to use a rigged heddle weaving loom. I’m now currently at Dundee University in my second year studying Textile Design.
