    MELATONIN'S NATIVE AMERICAN INSPIRATION & POSITIVE VIBES

    Melatonin has been developing his skills using the Bernina 1008 sewing machine this week. He is becoming very adept at the design process and has already started to think about enlarging his work and creating work on a much larger scale.  After completing his Hulk cushion at the beginning of the week, never did we think that he would be moving between a soft sculpture perfume bottle and a hand painted Native American inspired embroidery. Thank you for your positive vibes and inspiration. ✨

    PIERRE'S OUTSTANDING EFFORTS TOUCHED A PLACE IN OUR HEARTS

    Pierre has only been with us a short while, however he has captured everyone's attention and our hearts this week with his embroidered lady, inspired by the fantastic artist 'Basmat Levin'.  Pierre also performed 'Lucky Man' by The Verve on his guitar this week.  I explained to him that in 13 years working inside HMP Holme House Prison, this was one of the most special moments for me.  Thank you for your contribution to what is a very wonderful place to work Pierre ♥️.

    Raymondo machine embroiders Spiderman!

    Raymondo completed the TAFIE course on Friday (16/02/24). He has worked so hard on his final piece of work for Koestler 2024.  We are delighted to share with you the final parts of his machine embroidery technique.  Raymondo took to this freestyle-technique like a duck to water really.   We wish Raymondo all the very best in his next venture where he will be learning Professional Cookery techniques.  We will keep in touch with Raymondo as all of his work will be going to Koestler, London for the April deadline.  Exciting times for Raymondo!  See below for more detailed footage of Raymondo working exceptionally hard this week.
