Fabric sculpture artist Mary-Ann Toop is the guest today on the Stitchery Stories podcast. Mary-Ann shares her story of leaving her civil engineering career, battling depression and starting her fascinating creative journey.

  • Trying to be creative every day
  • How creativity help battle depression and ill-health
  • The benefits of becoming immersed in small repetitive movements like embroidery
  • Exploring Pinterest... and discovering that textiles and embroidery can be art
  • Who is Concordia?
  • A fascination with flight
  • Evolving techniques using wire, clay, fabric, embroidery
