Your Teacher
Your tutor Nicole is an Australian bobbin lace artist combining handmade and designed bobbin lace with hand embroidery. Learning and experimenting with lace and stitching began at an early age with numerous informal opportunities at school and in the community through classes and attending craft groups.
Living around much of south-eastern Australia provided chances to investigate a range of lace and embroidery techniques in greater detail and opening up possibilities. Moving allowed Nicole to explore local areas inspiring her love of bright colours, geometry and nature.
It is in more recent times that Nicole has begun to explore the possibilities of combining bobbin lace and embroidery. Numerous experiments followed and assisted the development of this mixed media technique. These explorations continue allowing the embellished lace to evolve with new ideas and possibilities often assisted and inspired by exhibition guidelines and nature.
