Marion is a mixed media
textile artist working from a small studio at her home in the West
Midlands. She is a member of the exhibiting group Eclectica and Birmingham
Embroiderers’ Guild. Marion's work style is varied and includes framed pieces,
handmade journals, hangings and wearable art garments.
All her work starts
with a piece of undyed cloth – silk, linen or cotton. She is a keen dyer of
fabric and thread and the unpredictable results of experimental sessions are
often the inspiration for a piece of new work. She uses both free machine and
hand stitch.
Visitors are very welcome - please see details under 'How to find us'.

*** Owing to a last-minute cancellation, there is still a place available on Marion's workshop on Saturday 2nd July:
Papermaking – Pull, Couch,
Press
Participants in this workshop will produce unique handmade paper using cotton linters, recycled
materials and a variety of other ingredients. The paper can be used in many
ways – mixed media textile art, handmade journals, greetings cards, labels etc
– and paper you have made yourself adds an extra dimension of originality to
your work.
If you are interested in taking up this place, please contact Jenny Archer on 01926 338987 / jennyarcher401@gmail.com
