Review:  
‘Put simply, this is the best course I’ve ever been on.
Excellent pace and delivery with resources sent afterwards as well. We learnt so many techniques and then practised them for ourselves too! We also learnt how our students could develop them further.

Moderator’s comments:
“Textile candidates’ personal portfolios were brimming with ideas, experiments and references to textile and fashion designers as well as fine artists. Overall, the submission was exceptional in the engagement and industry and imaginative use of materials.’ 

'In Textiles, the standard of the work was outstanding…The course structure was strong. Finished pieces were often exciting and innovative. The individuality of the candidates was clearly seen in the diversity of colours, styles and techniques carefully annotated in work books and then displayed in the final outcomes.”

“The course gave candidates a very strong framework on which to build a response to the theme. Ideas were developed showing depth and thought so that the work of the highest achieving candidates was original, creative and in-depth.”

YOUR COURSE DEVELOPER: 
This course has been developed by NICKY SIMPSON who has developed many face-to-face and online courses, as well as delivering TSC workshops in schools.

NICKY SIMPSON  BA(Hons) Textiles Design: Specialising in print.

Nicky is a contemporary textiles artist, who has 12 years teaching experience, heading up Fashion & Textiles at a School in Kent. She has taught many different specifications from Art & Design Textiles at GCSE and A Level, Design and Technology at GCSE and A Level and BTEC Level 3 Fashion. Her last set of grades were: A Level 100% A-A*; GCSE 70% A-A* (100% A*-B). She has also taught Graphics, Food and Art at KS3.
Nicky previously enjoyed a successful career as a senior director of a fashion print agency in the heart of London. She designed original prints as well as creating and selling seasonal fashion print collections for the international market. 
Since 2016 Nicky has been a textile consultant, focusing on developing and leading the delivery of both online and face-to-face workshops for the Textile Skills Centre, including pattern development. Nicky has mentored many graduate trainees and is a volunteer mentor through the TSC mentorship programme.
She has delivered workshops at the Festival of Quilts, Knitting & Stitching show, The Stitch Festival and National trust. Nicky volunteers as an art therapist in her spare time. Her own work is creating arts and craft mostly with a heat press, featuring both machine and hand embroidery. Much of her work incorporates the flora found naturally in our beautiful English countryside. 

What other teachers have said about Nicky's workshops:
‘I have taken part in the Textile Skills Centre courses ran by Nicky. They have been instrumental in the design of my course, the resources that are provided along with the course enabled me to create a high-quality scheme of work for my KS4 curriculum and since starting with this course textiles has been the highest performing subject in our academy for 5 years running, without the inspirational, hands on courses and practical resources I’m not sure I would have achieved this.’
‘The creativity of the outcomes in year 11 is massively down to the courses I have done with Textile Skills centre, I would say the courses have had a huge outcome on the standard and creativity of my Year 11's work and already I can see even bigger improvements with Year 10 - they are going to be an amazing year group!’

Join Textile Artist NICOLA PERREN for a Creative Exploration of Drawing for Textiles
No need to be a confident drawer—just bring your curiosity for art, textiles, and creative expression!
This inspiring course uses drawing as a playful, hands-on process, blending traditional materials with textile techniques to spark experimentation and design thinking. You’ll explore DIY tools, unconventional materials, and reflect on how drawing can be a powerful, personal tool in your creative practice.



WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR:
This course is suitable for anyone, from those new to textiles, through to experienced makers who want to explore or refresh ways of thinking. You may be a teacher or lecturer looking to recharge your creative batteries, a student who wants to further your current knowledge, or maybe outside of formal education and fancy trying something outside of your usual remit.



WHAT TO EXPECT:
This approach to creativity focuses on a playful and ‘what if’ method of developing ideas for future designs or art directions through drawing. Mark-making, form creation, repetition and colour trials will be used as a basis to explore drawing through patchwork, weaving and hand stitched quilting. While you may choose to develop ideas onto ‘finished’ artefacts, drawings or designs, the series focuses on ideas generation as a part of the whole creative process.
We spend so much time thinking through ideas to completion, often before we even put pen to paper. What might happen if we think through such things while actually engaging in making, playfulness and ‘just doing stuff’ so, that we build an engaging and rich resource of research? Drawing can also be a challenge that brings anxiety, but a free approach to what might constitute drawing can often release those super exciting but unexpected ideas – that frequently never surface when we are rigid in our thinking.

 



WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
While we may have a host of glorious materials and tools available to us, this course will focus on using more every day and accessible materials with extensions suggested as to how ideas may evolve with a broader range of medium etc. In terms of fabrics and threads, it can be with scraps that you have available, old items of clothing or cloth and yarn that has been bought specifically for this.
Key items may include the following: (detailed list will be supplied once you sign up)
General drawing materials: 
Pencils
Pens
Paints and/or inks
Pastels
Tapes
Glue
Tools: 
Scissors
Brushes
Sewing needles [various sizes]
Palette
Water pot
Grounds: 
Loose papers – various from scraps to cartridge paper
Sketchbook for recording
Documenting and working in
Fabrics [scraps + 1/2m plain fabric]
Light weight card.
Other: 
Tapestry frame / old picture frame or piece of thick card
Various yarns and other yarn type materials such as cloth strips
Old plastic bags etc.
Sewing threads.
Good additional options: 
Scalpel,
cutting mat,
ruler,
fabric glue stick [I like the Sewline one]

 



PROGRAMME:
Once you have signed up to the full course, you will have access to a full materials list and a video to help you prepare before you join a session, this will include information about colour and potential subject choices which you can take as a starting point or, ignore and focus on a subject / colour story of your own choosing.

PRE-COURSE MATERIALS:

A] Confined drawing video. 
B] Pre-session planning. This video should be watched before you start the course to help you prepare and gather the things you will need. 

SERIES PROGRAMME:
Session 1] Mark-Making & Colour Thinking.
Session 2] Repetition of Form; but not repeats.
Session 3] Forms through Patchwork; DIY EPP.
Session 4] Tapestry as Textural Play.
Session 5] Quilting as Line & Surface Exploration.
 



LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Each session will have a core focus that can be explored in isolation or as part of an overall series of activities. 
Understand a creative, action-based approach to research and ideas suitable for further development [for a design or, arts-based direction].
Develop confidence and enhance your skills in drawing as a tool for textiles.
Explore the pairing of both traditional and experimental approaches in a creative textile orientated practice.

 Watercolour for beginners online course

ONLINE ON-DEMAND COURSE 
Series 3: Experimental Image Making
FEES: FULL COURSE £55

NB This course is available to anyone at any time. 



Join Nicola Perren of Perren Studios for a new set of classes in the Drawing for Textiles series. The 3rd of the series will see us explore and expand our approaches to drawing based on a subject matter of your choosing. With an experimental approach to image-making we will explore materials, composition, creating drama and the secretive art of gouache paint. Finally, we will explore hand applique as a direct translation of our drawings and, as a drawing process in itself.



If you have completed the first two of the series, that is great. The 1st one will have connected drawing to textiles very clearly, the 2nd will have given you scope to expand your source materials and inspiration. While I recommend you do these, the 3rd in the series will also work very well on its own.
With a focus on drawing, we will continue to question the properties of textile materials whilst generating a portfolio of drawings suitable for a new design collection and textile developments. Using experimentation, restriction, abstraction, play and sensory observation, we will aim to create a dynamic portfolio of work that reflects a personally chosen colour palette.







COURSE OVERVIEW:
Sometimes, we miss that vital stage between initial drawn studies or notes and the final designing process, the 3rd in this series of Drawing for Textiles will be about exploring drawing and image-making. It will be experimental, playful, engaging and colourful.



WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR:
This course is suitable for anyone, from those new to textiles, through to experienced makers who want to explore or refresh ways of thinking. You may be a teacher or lecturer looking to recharge your creative batteries, a student who wants to further your current knowledge, or maybe outside of formal education and fancy trying something outside of your usual remit.
You may have already completed series 1 or 2, if so, it is great to have you back on board but equally, this course can be completed without having done the previous series.



WHAT TO EXPECT:
The focus of this course will be on the creation of images and drawings that can stand alone in a project’s development and / or be the inspiration for translation into design and textiles. We will explore composition, abstraction and drama with a hint of expressiveness.
Aside from learning about hand stitched applique, you will also learn about stretching paper and how to work with Gouache paints.
You will select a subject matter of your own choosing, if you have done the 2nd in the series – you may want to use your artefacts to draw from. I recommend a format of drawing from a still life for this series and we will discuss how to make your still life dynamic and visually engaging, if you prefer however, you can draw from secondary sources. I will provide colour story options or, you may choose a story of your own. If you can have these items prepped before starting the units, that is helpful – but not a requirement.
This course is taught over 5 units, each unit is presented with a collection of recorded tasks, materials required and a short presentation that introduces the concepts for that unit. With the launch of the course, there will also be the opportunity to join any of the weekly live online evening sessions.
My way of teaching is relaxed, and I am told engaging, so while you will find plenty of opportunities for learning and considering different approaches, it is also enjoyable and can be completed according to your own timescale, energy and needs.




WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
This course does make use of a wide range of materials and tools, as with all my teaching, I offer alternatives to what I am doing in the class. You can do this course often with items you may already have around the house / in the garage but equally, you can by items specifically for the course. 
Below is a list of key items that I will use [in bold] and alternatives you may consider, it is all optional [detailed list will be supplied once you sign up].
I suggest you gather materials that link to your chosen colour story, if you do not have these – do not worry, but it is helpful.
General drawing materials: 
Pencils
Pens
Inks
Tapes
Glue
Bleach
Tools: 
Scissors
Brushes
Scalpel / craft knife
Cutting Mat
Ruler
Drawing board [if stretching paper]
Big water pot
Iron + board or mat.
Sewing needles
Grounds: 
Loose papers – various from scraps to cartridge paper
Cartridge paper
Sketchbook for recording / documenting work in
Paints:
Designer Gouache [Winsor & Newton, Daler Rowney, Schmincke] – NOT acrylic gouache. These paints are not particularly cheap and so my preference is to buy a few selected tubes according to the colours of the current project rather than a selection box with shades I will not use.
Textiles: 
Fabric and a selection of pieces about A4 size suitable for appliqué.
Sewing threads – general haberdashery items.
Fabric glue stick [optional]
A fusible interfacing – I use Floriani Stitch’n’Wash, Tearaway Fusible




PROGRAMME:
Once you have signed up to the full course, you will have access to a full materials list and a video to help you prepare before you join a session, this will include an approach to starting the project i.e., gathering visual references, selecting a colour story, stretching paper. You will have access to all 5 units in this program and there is also access to a few free additional sessions.
PRE-COURSE MATERIALS:
A] Pre-session planning. This video should be watched before you start the course to help you prepare and gather the things you will need. 
SERIES PROGRAMME:
Session 1] Abstracting the Mark.
We will jump straight into image making with a focus on mark-making and consideration of the non-white ground and your chosen colour story.
Session 2] Composing an Image.
Considering our chosen subject matters, we will explore compositions that engage the viewer and are perhaps unexpected.
Session 3] Gouache De-Mystified.
We will learn about designer gouache paint and a few different approaches to its use – all whilst developing our image-making folio.
Session 4] Added Drama.
Working with a range of media, we will add a touch of the theatrical to our drawings – this will be a messy session.
Session 5] Applique as Drawing.
We will learn about hand-based applique methods and will work towards a new image that utilises textiles as the core medium [with a little bit of a drawn materials intervention].



LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Each session will have a core focus that can be explored in isolation or as part of an overall series of activities. 
Understand a creative, action-based approach to research and ideas suitable for further development [for a design or, arts-based direction].
Develop confidence and enhance your skills in drawing, in its widest sense, as a tool for textiles.
Explore the pairing of both traditional and experimental approaches in a creative textile orientated practice.
