Margaret Talbot Textile Tutor E-Mail: Margaret, at elmswell.force9.co.uk

I

live in East Anglia and teach Textile Art to Adults, giving talks and workshops to Embroiderer's Guilds and Exhibiting Groups all over England. Specialising in Machine Embroidery on soluble fabric, I produce a textured and embossed surface which can then be used for hand stitchery, applique or fabric manipulation. Having studied the Medieval period, this inspired my work which often has an antique or time-worn appearance.
