Textile Design  

 

With a background in fine arts as well as textiles, I have an easy time envisioning ideas that are presented to me. I've been trained to design in repeat from original concepts.  

 

As a hand weaver, I've an excellent understanding of weave structure and fabric construction.  ​I'm also experienced with Jacquard woven design and development through to manufacturing.

 

As a fiber artist, I've developed as a visionary with the ability to realize successful fruition of concepts using the many textile techniques that I've learned.

 

 

 

 

 

What can I help you with?

 

Color and Trend  

As a color professional working with the fashion industry, I'm familiar with many aspects of color development, including standards, palette development and colorways.

 

As a dye technician and colorist, I'm familiar with color physics and the use of a spectrophotometer on various substrates, as well as textile testing procedures for color and fabric construction. 

 

As a visionary, I can build and maintain color collections, organize libraries/archives and create color cards/trend intelligence presentations, using both digital and tactile inspiration/resources.
