Meet the Artist – Rosie Gee

A little textile inspiration from my YouTube Textile Collection. Today it features the beautiful hand embroidery and beadwork of Rosie Gee. Filmed at Knitting & Stitching Show 2019.

Couture Embroiderer, Rosie Gee, guides us through her sketch book & explains the design process she takes from creating an initial sketch through to hand stitching the embellishment. Rosie is a recent graduate specialising in couture hand embroidery and is amongst the 25 international finalists of the Hand & Lock Prize For Embroidery 2019 for emerging hand embroidery talent in fashion and textiles. Recipient of an Embroiderers’ Guild Graduate Award 2019/20 and a graduate from BCU Textile Design currently working at Ralph & Russo.

Contact Magazine – I’ve an article in the new edition!

Members of the Embroiderers’ Guild will have just received their January copy of Contact Magazine.

At the Knitting and Stitching Show 2019 in Alexandra Palace, I got chatting to Anthea Godfrey and Pat Tempest. They were very interested in my pieces and asked me to write an article for the Magazine. It’s just been published!

I talk about a creative journey in 2019, through my Embroiderers’ Guild Exhibition pieces – “Take Time to Smell the Roses” and “Lancashire Cheese and Onion Pie”, and also my the piece I exhibited at The Festival of Quilts – “The First Day in the Mill”.

It features a photo of “Time for Tea”
