Mary Sleigh – welcome

I am a stitched textile artist, maker, tutor and author. Curiosity about people, their culture, practical skills and the marks they leave in their environment are a constant source of inspiration. Every place retains something of the people who live and work there. Finding those traces and connections are significant to my work. Much of the joy in what I create is in the actual making process, allowing things to change through construction, choosing and handling materials.
