About Helen
Helen Roskell is an experienced tutor with a passion for hand embroidery. She has been teaching creative embroidery techniques throughout the south West since 2010.
Inspired by the natural world and the stunning Dorset countryside, Helen teaches adults of all ages and abilities the joy of slow stitch using seasonal themes of universal recognition.
Her popular courses include wildflower meadows, seascapes, wild birds in flight, marshlands, layered landscapes and textural detailed studies of insects and plant life.
Diverse techniques also include silk painting, dry needlefelting, hand quilting, printing and fabric collage.
She often combines several techniques in one piece to illustrate that no single technique is mutually exclusive.

Seeing people grow in confidence in one day is the most rewarding aspect of my work."
