Gillian BatesGillian Bates takes local images from near where she lives and recreates them using stitch. I really like her work and it has inspired me in many of my projects to use embroidery.

| Boats that float, I love the way the outline is in black stitch and then she has used different types of fabric to show colour and add texture. |

Cole & Son
Cole & Son have inspired some of my work. I love the way they print and the style that they have.
I choose them alot because they like to experiment with different imagery.
