About Alexandra Waylett

Educated in fine art, I went on to study City and Guilds in Machine Embroidery. I use the sewing machine as a tool, to draw, manipulate and form textural surfaces within and on fabric. My work combines applied inks/paint with stitch embellishment and has a strong illustrative narrative, coastal, natural forms and patterns and also floral themes. I have been teaching for fifteen years, and love passing on my skills to students and watching them develop into artists themselves.
