MagpiesLaundry

I am a textile artist working in the UK. Taking vintage fabrics, recycled clothes & costume jewellery, I apply the traditional techniques of patchwork, quilting, appliqué & embroidery to create unique pieces of contemporary textile art. Keepsakes for everyday use - quilts, cushions, bags and accessories.

Magpies Laundry connects the past, when textiles were expensive and treasured, with today's sustainable sensibilities. Reclaimed, refashioned and repurposed, Magpies Laundry gives that ethos a contemporary, relevant twist.

I accept commissions, transforming your hidden treasures into beautiful pieces of textile art that you will be proud to see in your home and that you will be delighted to use, giving you pleasure every time you see them - every day.
