    I create handcrafted patchwork bags using Harris Tweed pure wool combined with leather, organza, yarn, and layered machine stitching. Each textile panel is built from individually pieced fabrics, embellished with textured fibres and netting to create richly tactile surfaces. Alongside bags, I make framed textile landscape collages using fabric, embroidery, and yarn.

    My name is Emma, and I'm an illustrator, maker and workshop facilitator based in Leeds, UK. I love to use art to expand people’s knowledge, awareness and curiosity (including my own!). A lot of good can come from using art to support our understanding of ourselves, one another, and the world around us. I get very excited when art is the catalyst for important conversations and ideas.

    My passion is for fabric and stitch, my background in illustration, fashion and hand-embroidery. Recently my practice has grown using new methodologies to create large-scale installations and interactions. My work is generous and inclusive, acting like a type of therapy, offered to the viewer with gentle humour. Methods I use are traditionally craft related, all familiar childhood activities.
