Sue Bibby Embroidery

Sue Bibby’s illustrative embroideries are inspired by birds, the natural world and domestic life. Using a combination of free machine embroidery, hand stitch, stumpwork and mixed media she individually makes each piece working from her own drawings.

Having collected lots of fabrics over the years, she is pleased to be repurposing and giving them new life. Layered and collaged backgrounds are the canvas for fine detailed work, using tiny fragments of delicate silks, linen and lace to create depth and texture.

A range of products have been developed, including small pictures, cards, brooches, badges and books.
