| Prize-Winners |
The Prize-winners were invited to the Worshipful Company of Dyers in London and I was one of the lucky winners. It was a great opportunity to learn about the Company's present-day activities centred around the development of dying and to meet the Prime Warden, Renter Warden and the members of the Court of the Dyers' Company. This was an insightful opportunity and I would like to thank the Worshipful Company of Dyers for the award and recognition for the use of colour within my textiles work.

March 2012: Queen Elizabeth QEST Scholar Award.
I am delighted to be the recipient of a Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Award. QEST (Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust), the charitable arm of the Royal Warrant Holders Association, was established in 1990 to advance education in modern & traditional crafts and trades in the UK. Winning a Queen Elizabeth Scholarship will enable me to continue MA Textiles in Mixed Media at the RCA.
I am passionate about using traditional techniques and materials in new and innovative ways with the aim of pushing the boundaries of textile design. Trying to merge two opposing qualities has been insightful and produced some pleasing results. The scholarship will allow me to continue to create unique fashion/interior fabrics with a strong emphasis on material exploration.
Royal College of Art 'Work In Progress Show'
The fabrics exhibited here were created for the WSGN A/W13/14: Materials creative direction project. The project was concerned with 'tactility' in this digital age. Engaging the senses through sensory touch through tender bundles of fiber and threads. Surfaces range from the powdery to smooth and ceramic or heavily textured.
Neighbourhood Colour Fashion Project.
Geometrics
Work inspired by the layered flashes of colour and shapes captured by architectural glass in Canary Wharf. The rigid sharp lines of the buildings contrasted with the distorted blurred outlines of the reflections, are echoed here. Intricate stern hand cutwork is combined with fuzzy stitching to create this beautiful geometric fabric. Once stretched this fabric is transformed and becomes a three dimensional surface.
