The Makers Studio with Dionne Swift, Textile Artist

Dionne Swift creates dynamic stitched textiles using a vibrant mix of threads, colours and textures.
In this episode of The Makers Studio, we meet Dionne Swift. She is an internationally exhibiting artist, tutor and author. She also creates dynamic, stitched textiles using a vibrant mix of threads, colours and textures.
Learn how to use free motion embroidery to create a range of patterns, textures, tones, and shades. Discover more about Dionne, her motivations and her approach to projects. It's riveting to watch Dionne demonstrate how your needle can become a pen and the thread your ink.
We’ll also be joined by industry experts. Jayne Brogan (Janome technical expert and Regional Manager) and Valerie Nesbitt (Quilting expert and Founder of justhands-on.tv) are also with us for a round table chat about the finished project.

Wow …. This has been fantastic to watch …. I have learnt so much, I’ve wanted to do free motion embroidery for quite a few years but never really known where to start, and watching this has given me more confidence to have a go ….. also I never knew my free motion foot could move up and down 😧😧…. It’s be so fun to watch you Dionne …. And thank you to the other ladies too 💖💖
