EMMA BROUGHTON
I am a Wiltshire-based RSN trained Embroidery Tutor, Author, Artist and fabric
designer with expertise in hand embroidery, fabric dyeing, screen printing, and
digital fabric design.
I am a graduate of both the Royal School of Needlework Apprenticeship (2009) and
the University of the Creative Arts (2012). In 2019 my book 'Embroidered Boxes:
Techniques and Projects' was published by Crowood Press.
My passion is creating unique designs for embroidered boxes and specialist
embroidery kits. I sell and teach my design online and in person classes
independently, for the Royal school of Needlework and the Embroiderers' Guild of
America under the name Fairy Wren Embroidery.
In 2023 I was given the honour of being awarded a Developing your Creative
Practice Grant by the Arts Council England to fund a Blackwork Portrait project
which I am extremely passionate about.
I have recently been accepted as a RSN Fellow, which is the school's new
professional association for tutors and other alumni to celebrate their
commitment, skill and passion for embroidery.
