Jacquie Binns started creating art work for the church in 1986 after spending 3 years studying at the world famous Goldsmiths Art College in London.
Her embroidered work is free-hand machine embroidery and, amongst various techniques, ruching is employed to increase the play of light and texture on the surfaces.
Around the world, the embroideries of Jacquie Binns are displayed in cathedrals , churches and private collections.
The vestments, banners, altar frontals, icons and sculpture that make up Jacquie's work convey a strong sense of humanity and compassion through her expressive draughtsmanship and vibrant sense of colour and form.
