Balgarvie Weaving is the work of textile designer Janet Hughes.
All fabric is lovingly created by her by hand, using learned craft skills, in her garden studio weave shed in Fife.
Janet is an active member of the team at Fibreshed Scotland and is working towards a more sustainable practice of using fully traceable scottish Cheviot wool from one herd as well as creating her own colour palette from botanical dyes grown in her dye garden.
Janet is offering a selection of natural dye and creative classes in her purpose built garden classroom please email janet@balgarvieweaving.co.uk for more details and to book.
Janet loves pattern and uses op and primitive patterns in her work gaining source inspiration from both her Scottish and British heritage as well as contemporary art and design to produce limited numbers of hand woven fabric for use as scarves, wraps, cowls and accessories from locally sourced quality yarns.
Janet also makes small runs of bags and apparel using her own fabric utilising her tailoress skills.
