About Me

E-mail: maggie@margaretharris.co.uk

 

Having trained to use traditional art techniques for recording and mark making, I have now extended my media and use many textile techniques, as well as computers. I enjoy developing machine embroidery designs and more recently designing using the embellisher. I continue to use traditional media such as a range of printing, painting, and constructing techniques in my work. I am a well-qualified teacher and have taught students aged 8 to 80. My interest and enjoyment of textiles as an art form is well established and supported.

Currently I exhibit with 2 national groups, Losing the Thread and Urchfont Embroiderers. I am also mentored by Julia Carpara as a member of her Masterclass. I am a founder member of the Computer Textile Design Group. I am the founder of the Swindon and North Wiltshire Branch of the Embroiderers Guild, and co-founder of the newly formed Great Western Embroiderers.
