Welcome to Northern Seams

Hello and welcome to our new Social Enterprise. We are a Community Interest Company. We are Beverley Holmes-Wright (Designer Maker) and Omi Pharncote (Feltmaker).

We work with people who love to make textile arts and crafts and who need support during the day, such as people with learning disabilities or the elderly.

We make beautiful textile crafts and upload them onto our online gallery/shop, organise exhibitions, workshops for the general public and have Open Days. Unfortunately we are unable to sell items as yet, but are aiming to start selling our textile arts and crafts when we are fully up and running. Until then, please feel free to look at the lovely work we have made so far.

We use local accessible community venues across the North East to run our textile arts and crafts workshops. If you would like us to run a workshop for your community group or school, plase call Omi on 01207 562742 or email info@northernseams.co.uk.
