Eleanor Cardwell

Fashion – Newcastle

Born in Perth and educated in Newcastle, Eleanor studied art and photography at high school. Later, she studied a certificate 4 in Graphic Design and a Diploma in Applied Fashion at Hunter TAFE. Traveling around New Zealand, she started to need a craft that used minimal because of the nature of buses and Youth Hostels. This brought her to embroidery. She now lives and works in Newcastle where she enjoys sewing for art, wardrobe and unique requests. She also works with paint on fabric on occassion.
