Stitching for the Soul

Stitching for the Soul Beverley Holmes-Wright, maker of colourful, contemporary textiles. Living and working in Durham. Stitching keeps me happy and is an integral part of my life!

My Work:

I produce, carefully made, physical pieces which please the eye and brighten up the homes which take them in. Using only the highest quality fabrics and threads, each piece is made using a variety of free machine embroidery, appliqué and delicate stitched patterns. But, perhaps the largest part of my work involves planning aesthetic colour schemes and composition so that each creation

is harmonius and balanced! About Me:

I have been stitching and creating for over 20 years but started up a part-time business a few years ago, after completing an honours degree in Creative Practice from Leeds Met University, for which I received First Class. I currently work from home in Durham, part-time designing and making work to sell and for exhibitions. I love nothing more than getting my sewing machine out, turning the radio on and sitting down to create something colourful, fresh and new.

Why Stitching for the Soul? Though, I'm also partial to a bit of soul music.
