Jo Gallant

Cushions and wall-hangings made using a combination of dye-painting, machine quilting, embroidery and construction for pieces which range in size from tiny cushions to panels covering whole walls. While my work is strongly influenced by landscape and the environment, I am now moving increasingly towards the abstract. I work mostly in cotton and silk using a range of weights and textures, from heavy velvets to fine organzas, to create exciting contrasts, and to exploit the way in which different fabrics will reflect colour and light.

Joanna Carol Warner - Annabanana

I design and make handmade cards and wedding stationery. I base much of my design on nature. This includes using photography but also using seeds, tiny sticks, bark, anything that I find in the outdoors which might create an unusual design.

My work consists of woven tapestry, textiles and paperworks, mainly on the theme of my diverse ancestry. I enjoy rich colours and textures and the creation of beautiful surfaces. The work can be tiny or huge, but it is always carefully made and has won numerous awards and grants.

John P Johnston - Furniture

From his workshop near Dunbar in East Lothian, John works mainly to commission on a wide range of bespoke furniture and related timber projects. These objects mostly involve Scottish hardwoods as the main material, and sometimes incorporate small metal, slate or reclaimed materials for detail.
John's furniture can be described as clean lined, simple and highly functional. And also has a sense of robustness where the natural beauty of the timber enhances the over all design.
