Fibre Fusion

I blend a range natural fibres to create unique textures and surfaces that reflect the beauty of the natural world. Bamboo, Linen, Nettle, Rose and Cotton are just some of the plant fibres used within my work.

Silk Paper Making

Using delicate silk fibres, I handcraft exquisite papers that embody elegance and intricacy. This strong structured surface has a unique luster and lends itself well to machine embroidery and construction.

Bespoke Lampshades

Transform your living space with my custom lampshades, carefully crafted with a mix of natural fibres and dried flowers.

About Us

Unleashing Creativity with Fibres

Blooming Fibres came about due to the use of blooms and fibres within my textile work. I combine all things plant! Dried plants, plant dyes, plant fibres and plant printing, of course I am passionate about all things fibre based, but more important are the aspects I find all consuming within nature.

I enjoy the process of combining natural fibres with dried flowers to create layered immersive images. Using the techniques of fibre fusion, silk paper making, gel plate printing, plant dyeing, machine embroidery and hand stitch to create bespoke textile wall hangings, framed artworks and feature lampshades.

With a deep appreciation for the beauty of nature, I continue to absorb its essence at every opportunity.
