I have an established background in designing and making textiles, working primarily with wool. With a passion for colour, I work with machine knitted and felted wearables and soft furnishings, which I applique, embellish or stitch.
I have become fascinated by hand felting for the freedom of colour mixing, mark making and sculptural possibilities it offers, which I find very exciting .

"Our day with Chris was such a lovely relaxing and peaceful experience. She is a fabulous teacher, calm and encouraging, helping us to explore our creativity. We both came away feeling empowered with new skills and a yearning to return for another day with her. Thank you Chris!"
"We had a fun and interesting day with Chris. What a fascinating process it was to make a pair of slippers, with a great selection of colours to choose from. A really different workshop. Plenty of coffee or tea, and a lovely home made soup for lunch."
"Thank you Sharon. I'm glad you both enjoyed your day. I would love you to send me photos of your completed slippers, and hope to see you again in the future. "
"This was a truly excellent experience overall- my daughter was keen to make a top hat and Christine made one the day prior to the course so that she was well-prepared to support my daughter’s project, which turned out fantastically well. We each came away with hats we love, completely made in the one day, and I was so impressed by Christine’s skills, knowledge, and enthusiasm for her craft, as well as the lovely location of her workshop and the facilities she had. Amazing range of colours on offer and lots of examples for inspiration as well. Thoroughly recommend! "
"Thank you so much for your review. I really enjoyed our day, and having to get to grips with making a top hat!
I've turned the sides up on mine, and it's worked really well!
All the best ,
Chris"
"Thanks Philippa! Hope they look as good in it as you do!"
