COURSE DEVELOPER Nicky Simpson BA(Hons) Textiles Design: Specialising in print.

Uploaded at 19/02/2024, 15:57:41

This course has been developed by NICKY SIMPSON who has developed many face-to-face and online courses, as well as delivering workshops in schools, at Festival Of Quilts, Knitting & Stitching Show, Stitch Festival and for the National Trust.

Nicky’s 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. 



Feedback for other online courses developed by Nicky: 'I have completed this course this weekend and really enjoyed myself. I brushed up on some techniques I already knew, and can now see some new ideas for them. I really enjoyed the new techniques that I had shied away from before, as I thought they would be too tricky! The tutorial videos are very clear with great demos. Can't wait to experiment more.'
