Hello and welcome to my studio, where I specialise in creating original floor mats, rugs, wall hangings, and decorative pieces using the traditional rug-making techniques of ‘hooky’ and ‘proggy.’ These techniques represent a significant aspect of the cultural heritage of Northern England and have been woven into the fabric of family life for generations. My work aims to honour this rich history while providing unique, handcrafted items that enhance your space. Explore these vibrant and colourful creations that bridge the past and present.

Custom Designs 

 If have a specific design, colour palette, or idea in mind, I would be excited to collaborate with you to bring your vision to life. Together, we can create a one-of-a-kind rug or wall hanging that perfectly reflects your style and personality.
