Jenny of “Threads of Stillness” is a textile artist using felted wool and embroidery to create work inspired by nature, in particular the moments of stillness when pausing and really looking at the world around her.
She was lucky enough to grow up in the countryside, going for walks in the hills and through the fields. Jenny spent a lot of time making things, and was inspired by her grandmother, who was a brilliant dressmaker and lacemaker. A teacher called Mrs Ayre ran a sewing class at her primary school where she spent an hour after school each week sewing – this really inspired her to carry on crafting and creating beautiful things.
