After many years working in various industries all somehow related to sewing .I took the plunge after my redundancy opening up my very own sewing studio in Stafford.I enjoyed teaching so much I decided in 2019 to expand joining the Sew Confident group and in December I opened up a studio in Birmingham.I have over 20 years experience of working in various textile industries, from costume and historical costume design, research and making through to bridal and special occasion wear. Home furnishings and craft related items .Because of my wide range of experience with working with different textiles and manufacturing techniques. I was able to use these skills working for the MOD making bespoke items for the armed forces.Following my employment from the MOD I formed my own company with an aim to teach sewing classes and run creative classes in my home town.
