About us
What’s On Offer?
PROGRESSION IN TEXTILES
A group of like minded Textile Artists who want to help each other progress with their practice. The group is closed to new members at the moment but if spaces become available we will open for registration in January of each year.
The selection process is completed with the agreement of all current members. If any member feels a prospective member would not fit into the dynamics of the group then that application is denied.
RENTING STUDIO
If you would like to rent the studio then get in touch with Anita to discuss your needs.
We have a set rate for Artists booking for a group of their own.
We are always available to discuss the use of the studio for individuals or for groups. For regular meeting or a special occasion.
Anita is also happy to help where she can if your venue is unable to accommodate you for some reason.
ANITA O’NEILL
Sewing has always been a part of my life. My Mother was a Tailor working for the armed forces and in the private industry. If she was not altering somebodies clothes she was making wedding dresses and home furnishings. I never enjoyed the structural work but always helped with the embellishing where I was permitted.
