Hello, I'm Sally Jubb. Welcome to my website.

 

After years as a scientist, I trained as a Textile Conservator at the Textile Conservation Centre in Winchester. I have always enjoyed creating with fabric, and now I get the best of both worlds... conserving precious antique pieces, and creating my own textile art.

 

Part of my week is spent in professional conservation studios, working mostly on large tapestries. The rest of my time is devoted to conserving those smaller much-loved textiles that many people have in their homes (such as samplers, costumes and fashion items) which may have suffered from a variety of environmental damage. I also enjoy working on items from churches, museums, the WI... anywhere! I've recently finished conserving a number of items from churches in Hampshire.

 

Depending on its condition, a textile might be restored to as near the original as possible, or simply conserved to stabilize its present condition, reducing the possibility of future degradation.

 

If you have such a textile that you would like to discuss, please feel free to Contact Me for a no-obligation chat.

 

When not working with older textiles, I create my own textile art, and am happy to consider commissions.
