I’ve made velvet curtains, Arctic tents, and more in film and theatre, most recently handmaking two large sets of multi-layered Victorian curtains & window treatments for An Ideal Husband at Wokingham Theatre.
I qualified from the National Design Academy in March 2026 with a Diploma in Curtain Making & Soft Furnishings, covering hand and machine made curtains with a range of pleated headings, swags & tails, padded pelmets, Roman blinds, and soft furnishings such as piped cushions.
I’ve also been learning traditional and modern upholstery at The Chair School, Henley, and I plan to begin studying Stage 1 of the AMUSF diploma later this year.
