Sue Stone is a UK based textile artist who is best known for textural, figurative compositions that often feature a fish.
“The fish is a symbol of my Grimsby heritage. It represents who I am and reminds me where I came from”
Sue’s inspiration is drawn from the seen, the heard and the experienced; personal relationships, life observations and a pride in her heritage. Her work has an emphasis on hand embroidery mixed with machine stitch and paint.
Sue gives talks and delivers workshops throughout the UK and has taught in France, USA, and Canada and online for Textileartist.org which is run by her two sons Joe and Sam with whom she is pictured above.
Sue studied Embroidery at Goldsmiths College in London. She is an exhibiting member of the 62 Group of Textile Artists (Chair 2013 to 2018), a Fellow of the Society of Designer Craftsmen and a member of SEW

What an amazing work, I’ll come back to look at it again. Lovely blog.
Thanks Rosa . I’m pleased you enjoyed looking at my work.
Love your work, always enjoy seeing your newest project. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Suzi. As you are my namesake can I ask where you are from?
A where and when are your workshops wendy
I mainly do workshops for Embroiderers Guild branches throughout the UK. My website is being redesigned at present but Usually have a list on there and also in my newsletter. Would you like me to sign you up to that?
Next year I will be teaching a workshop for Studio Preniac in France http://www.studiopreniac.com
Would like to order your book Do You Remember.

I only have 4 left at present but will be getting a reprint very soon.
Thank you. Can’t wait to get it…
I saw your exhibition today at The Ropewalk. Your work is wonderful, I love it.
Your work strikes such a chord in my heart! There’s something about seeing the faces of people you have loved, some of who are now gone, stitched so lovingly and patiently that it almost overwhelms me! I’m very interested in attending your workshop in France and plan on signing up for your next on-line course. I’d also like to purchase a book.
Hi Bev, Unfortunately the workshop in France was in 2018 and my book is now out of print. To find out about my online classes please sign up to the Textileartist.org newsletter and when the courses are rereleased the dates will be sent out via that newsletter.
Your work is amazing! Would you consider being hired for a speaking engagement via Zoom in December of 2022 for a California based quilt guild? Thank you!
Hi Susan, Thank you so much for your kind words about my work. I’d be happy to consider speaking to your group via Zoom next year .
Please private message me at my Instagram account with more detail so we can discuss further. https://www.instagram.com/womanwithafish/
