Alison Holt
Alison Holt is a contemporary UK textile artist with a Fine Art Embroidery BA Hons degree from Goldsmiths College, London, specialising in freehand machine embroidery.
Using a basic Bernina sewing machine and just 2 stitches, straight stitch and zig-zag Alison makes embroidered pictures of landscapes, seascapes, flowers and garden scenes, influenced by the Shropshire Wales border near Oswestry where I live and by my travels.
Alison regularly exhibits internationally and is a regular exhibitor at the Chelsea Flower Show in London and other venues in Europe and Australasia.
