She is based in the beautiful Cambridgeshire Fens, UK, an area that influences her designs amid her whole ethos of crafting for well-being. She feels deeply connected to Mother Earth and uses her walks within the landscape to inspire her.

She holds workshops throughout the UK and online, and is a guest presenter on craft TV channels, showcasing her products and needlecraft skills. Tilly hosts textile tours in India and plans to extend this to other countries. She also regularly exhibits at craft shows. This is her fourth book with Search Press.
