Starting
from a teaching base, the business venture has developed in a
steady but gradual way, although teaching still forms the backbone
of Jo´s working week. The love of sharing information with
others, working with people who are inspired by fabrics and colours
- and who enjoy working in a creative environment - are the main
reasons for running the classes.
The
business is now multi-faceted and includes teaching, dressmaking
commissions, retail of dress fabrics and haberdashery & sewing
machines, together with crafts and garment alterations.
Throughout
her teaching career Jo has been involved in the setting and marking
of public examination papers at "A" and GCSE level,
working for a variety of examination boards. She continues to
work for AQA in Newcastle.
After
6 years in Egremont, the business has now moved to exciting new
premises in Ulverston. With more space & in comfortable surroundings
of considerable character, the business will continue in its many
facets. This now includes established links with Ulverston Adult
Education and with Furness College. All taking place here at Unique
Image- ALL UNDER ONE ROOF. |
