Willow Weaving by Windrush Willow
We are thrilled to welcome Windrush Willow to our Marquee Lawn this summer!
Meet Maggie Powell of Natty Deco, one of the local makers featured in our Gallery Shop
This event has ended
Maggie is a designer maker based in Somerset. With a background in textile design Maggie has worked for many years teaching and supporting students with all aspects of digital textile design and laser cutting at Bath Spa University. Now working from her Shepton studio she uses a laser cutter to produce her popular range of birchwood flowers, paper cut cards, and seasonal decorations.
Designs are developed digitally from Maggie's drawings and photographs, and cut from sustainable and responsibly sourced materials - FSC Certified Birchwood, and Somerset Papers produced locally at the nearby St Cuthbert's Mill, City of Wells. Maggie can often be spotted out with her camera taking inspiration from the magnificent gardens of Hestercombe and she is delighted that sales of her work through the Hestercombe Gallery Shop are in some small way helping to support the evolution of this beautiful place.
Meet the Makers is free when paying standard garden admission (Hestercombe members go free).
Admission tickets are available via the Hestercombe website.
Described as “one of the top twenty gardens to visit in the country”, Hestercombe is always beautiful throughout the year. Join today and enjoy unlimited access, with prices from £48 per year.
