Maker's bio

I am a professional milliner, making hats for formal and informal occasions - weddings, ladies day racing, bridal headpieces, fascinators and contemporary accessories etc. Millinery classes for students interested in exploring heritage techniques, and making their own headpieces, etc. are delivered in person exclusively for Craft Courses in my NE studio, as well as for a number of local organisations, and galleries. Please get in touch if you are interested in a 1:1 class in person or via Zoom.

Marianne Gibson reviewed: Make your own contemporary sinamay halo headpiece - online

"I had a fantastic experience learning to construct the Sinamay Halo Headpiece online with Margaret Woodliff. She put our schedules together and came up with a time we could meet one-to-one to overcome an eight hour time zone gap. It was a well thought out and professionally taught class. Margaret is patient and amiable but still caught every detail of how my work was coming along to assure a positive and delightful outcome. I had high hopes and she exceeded them all! She spent a little time showing me the versatility of the headpiece through various models she had created and each piece could be showcased. I feel very fortunate to have come across the Craft Courses platform. I’m especially grateful to Margaret for the time she set aside for me, for her delightful personality and for the excellent skills and talent she shared with me. "

Margaret Woodliff Wright Millinery responded:

" Thank you very much Marianne for such a lovely review. It was a pleasure both to meet you and to teach you the online course. Happy Hatting! Margaret "
