A variety of textile activities....

In this 140 year old building Ruth Black carries on the family business Anna Macneil which was started by her mother on the Isle of Lewis in the 1980s. She makes a range of fashion accessories using Harris Tweed. These include hats and scarves, bags and purses, wraps and capes, wall hangings and cushions, keyrings and Christmas decorations. Everything is available to buy through the Anna Macneil website and we also offer a bespoke service.

Ruth also works with tartans, but in the field of Ecclesiastical Embroidery. She makes vestments and paraments for clergy and churches all over the world with her design theme largely Celtic inspired and usually incorporating tartan within her designs. Visit her Angelforce website for more information.

Ruth dabbles in many different fibre crafts but her passions are embroidery, weaving and feltmaking. At The Workshop she has a new 16-shaft floor loom with computer dobby and if there is a warp in place when you visit, she will be happy to demonstrate the loom in action. Ruth is also a feltmaker and often makes felt which she then embroiders in various ways to create wall art. She also teaches feltmaking and sewing. Visit her website Ruth Black - Textile Artist.
