Crafts @ The Gallery

Many items made in Norfolk exclusively for @ The Gallery.

The Craft section @ The Gallery is well worth a visit, specialising in crafts made in Norfolk, many exclusive to The Gallery. Jewellery is always popular and @ The Gallery has a range of beautiful hand made items.

Fabrics by Anna Cooke

We have a wide range of beautiful fabric work produced by Anna Cooke, a talented teacher and textile artist who lives near the Norfolk coast.

Having not done very well in her Art ‘A’ levels (apparently she had to much artistic imagination!), Anna fell in love with the abstract and fabric. When not teaching, Anna spends her time at the sewing machine ‘creating’ and talking to her whippet, Lolly. Anna says she owes her love of fabric to her mother (lovingly known as Puff) who has taught Anna much of what she knows about fabric. Anna gains much enjoyment from her textile creations and hopes that they bring the same enjoyment to their new owners.
