Hello and welcome to my little online world, my name is Laura and I am a designer based in the South of England, and have been drawing and creating since I was a wee nipper.
I initially studied Art & Design at college, and it was during this time that I fell in love with all things textiles. This passion led me to the Royal School of Needlework; there I studied the fine art of hand embroidery and slowly began my love affair with tea. I graduated in 2005, along with a top award earned in 2004 from the Gold and Silver Wyre Drawers.
Since then I’ve gained valuable work experience working at Philip Treacy’s London Studio, Lulu Guinness head office, and have worked alongside a very talented film and TV costumier my aunt on various projects.
I now like to make wonderful little embroidered items, in lush cottons, linens and threads as and when my muse strikes and time is permitting. I have a passion for Liberty Tana Lawn, drinking lots of tea, watches, vintage brooches, baking and reading.
One day I would love to set up a little independent gallery in the States, where I can show off other talented artisans, because I know so many that do not get their chance in the limelight that I know that they deserve.
