This little two page montage pretty much sums up my working year. Lots of commission work for which I was very grateful and lots of new challenges . It’s fun to look back over this very weird year and see what I managed to create. Hope that 2021 will bring new challenges and that some of the old ones will be back too!! #lookingback #theyearahead #creativeyear #textileart #embroideredtextiles #contemporaryembroidery #machineembroidery #freemachineembroidery #landscapeart #bucksartist

Did you get any Christmas money to spend on something really nice for yourself? Are you frustrated that the shops are all shut? Well....have you heard the news that @buckinghamshirecraftguild now have a website where you can browse and buy the wonderful work of our talented artists anytime you like whatever tier you are in. Why not make yourself a cuppa and spend a few minutes taking a look around the fabulous range of work the guild has to offer. I have just added a new original piece to the site and our artists are adding new pieces all the time.

My recent portrait piece has the most beautiful eyes and it reminded me of the many different types of eyes I’ve worked on. Do you know who they all belong to? #theeyeshaveit #eye #embroideredeyes #livingtheeyelife #textileart #textileartist #rachelwrightembroidery #embroideredtextileart

During lockdown 2 I was working on this lovely girl. She has the most beautiful eyes. I am not a pet portrait artist ....This was a special favour in a unique circumstance. #theeyeshaveit #dogsofinstagram #textileart #stitchedart #machineembroidery #textileartist #contemporaryembroidery #embroideredtextiles

This piece has arrived at it’s new home today so I can now share it. It was a commission based on Strumble head in Pembrokeshire. Its taken weeks to complete and is one of the largest pieces I’ve ever made. #strumblehead #strumblelighthouse #pembrokeshirecoast #textileart #embroideredtextileart #contemporarytextiles #stitchedart #threadpainting

This is the whole commission which I’ve been working on. It was a really slow starter and I nearly gave up on it at one stage!! #keepgoingforward #heather #carpetofheather #textileart #contemporaryembroidery #machineembroidered #textileartist #landscapeart #textilelandscape

Golden fields of oil seed rape. I was especially inspired by and enjoyed using my new bit of fabric from @doughtysonline (swipe to see it) which I treated myself to because of missing out on The Festival of quilts annual shopping trip to stock up! Can you spot all the places I used it?

I promised you no more churches so here is something very different I’ve been working on this week. It’s the hottest day of the year so of course I’ve been embroidering a winter scene! It helps to think cool thoughts ❄️🌨 #isitwinteryet #embroideredtextileart #textileartist #machineembroidery #contemporaryembroidery #stitchedart

From top left clockwise there’s St Mary’s Ashendon, All Saints Wotton Underwood, St John the Baptist Dorton, St James’ Boarstall, and All Saints Brill. #milkingit #milkingitforallitsworth #textileart #contemporaryembroidery #machineembroidered #textileartist

I have been given permission to now show a special piece which I have been working on since late in 2019 and throughout early 2020. It comprises of one main piece and 8 small pieces so today I’m showing the main piece which is #brillwindmill #brillwindmillbuckinghamshire #windmill #textileart #contemporarytextileart #stitchedart #machineembroidery #embroideredtextileart

Finished! And it’s not even Friday. This piece was loosely inspired by a photo posted by my old school friend from art class. Thanks @jussyrush for the inspiration. I loved her pictures of dramatic skies over wet flat sands and thought it would be challenging to try to recreate that mood or something similar. She lives in a beautiful area which is also really close to my heart as it’s somewhere near to where my Dad grew up and an area that holds happy family memories for me. #textileart #contemporaryembroidery #stitchedart #stitchedstories #embroideredtextiles #machineembroidery #rachelwrightembroidery

These pieces have gone to @oldchapelgallery in Pembridge, Herefordshire as part of their ‘Making Waves‘ exhibition. It’s open from tomorrow (Weds-Sat each week 12-4) If you’re anywhere near this beautiful part of the country the gallery is well worth a visit. #textileart #contemporaryembroidery #herefordshire #pembridge #oldchapelgallery

Two oldies and a relative newbie. I like looking at how old work stands against new. I remember working on the bottom one which was my first panoramic piece and saying to myself never again. Obviously the pain faded in time 😂😂#textileartist #contemporaryembroidery #machineembroidery #textileart #contemporarytextileart #landscapeart #rachelwrightembroidery #buckinghamshirecraftguild
