Creative Directory
As a child I had a great passion for textiles. I was given a small commission by Charles Hammond, Sloane Street, London in 1984, and was subsequently offered a job with another Interior Designer in Chelsea. My early work focused on handsewn hexagon patchwork but moved to unique hand painted, machine embroidered unique waistcoats. To date I have sold in excess of 1000 pieces of work , including waistcoats, artworks, and other textile items. Over the years I have had numerous commissions. My waistcoats have been sold to people of all ages, and appeal to a wide range of personalities.
I recently published my second book "Hexagon Patchwork - Pattern & Design". My design kits are sold on the internet all over the world.
For many years to present my waistcoats have been sold at Brigid Foleys designer clothing shop in Tavistock and exhibited at the Exeter Festival, and other venues. Since 2003 most my sales have been generated via the internet.
