ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Emma, a recent BA (Hons) Textile Design graduate from Arts University Bournemouth. I have a strong interest in textiles for fashion, accessories and interiors. I have a mixed media background, specialising in digital and hand embroidery, digital and screen print and embellishment such as beading. I am actively seeking experience in the fashion and textile industry that will gain me valuable and transferable skills for the future. I am inspired by everyday inspiration, natural forms and colour!
