If you are in Lewes, take a look on School Hill to see my window display. I’ve always dreamed of window dressing and this has been a kind opportunity to bring a little of Tuesday’s Bride to the high street for a little while! The studio is just a few minutes out of town and visits are warmly welcomed-just contact me in advance so we can make a plan. Would love to hear from you if you see it for yourself. Many thanks to @thought_craft for my lovely logo work, it’s magical ti see it in print, in a beautiful setting. #leweshighstreet #bridalwindow by @tuesdaysbride_
Whilst I love the calmness of the cream, ecru, ivories and whites, I do love colour. Here are some colour charts I’ve made in various media, studies in colour mixing, tone and behaviour have all helped me tune into colour behaviour in my textile artworks. by @tuesdaysbride_

🏆 THE 2026 OPEN TEXTILE ART FINALISTS We are pleased to announce the finalists for the 26th Hand & Lock Prize for Embroidery in the Open Textile Art category: Santiago Celio @santo_cielo Lei Ka Wai @treasure.needle Kirsten Doogue @doogue_embroidery Sarah Muscat Azzopardi @the_secret_rose Amy Martin @tuesdaysbride_ Katy Merrington @katymerrington Stay tuned as we reveal the finalists in the Open Fashion, Student Textile Art and Student Fashion categories. #handandlockprize #handandlocklondon Santiago Celio Cioli - The Uprooted Garden Santiago Celio Cioli (Santo Cielo) is a Uruguayan embroidery artist based in Germany, specialising in needlepainting. In The Uprooted Garden, he combines this detailed technique with three-dimensional stumpwork to create a layered diorama inspired by medieval manuscripts, Bosch and literary bestiaries, exploring migration through a surreal garden of symbolic creatures. Mentor: Danielle Clough @fiance_knowles Lily Lei Wai - Marriage This work explores personal freedom and cultural constraints, critiquing societal pressures that define women through marriage. Subverting traditional Chinese wedding motifs, the artist reimagines classical dragon and phoenix symbols into satirical vignettes of past romantic missteps, investigating the suffocation of forced expectations. Crafted using goldwork, needle lacing, and stumpwork on mesh and leather, the piece transforms heavy gold wedding bracelets into tools of autonomy. Connected by a broken chain, these 3D embroidered bracelets symbolize the rupture of generational cycles. This intuitive, painterly embroidery champions artistic liberation, declaring that women forge their own paths and celebrate freedom.
