About Hazel Everett

Hazel Everett first became interested in embroidery whilst still at school and her teacher suggested she might pursue a career in embroidery. Hazel went on to be an Apprentice at the Royal School of Needlework (RSN) and although she enjoyed learning about many different types of embroidery she became most fascinated by goldwork. As an Apprentice she had the honour of embroidering a commission for the RSN workroom a new pulpit fall in real 18-carat Japanese gold thread. As her career developed fate played a part and she was offered a number of commissions involving goldwork including a mitre for Cardinal Hume. Hazel went on to teach Goldwork Embroidery all over the UK and worked on numerous commissions including ecclesiastical work embroidering items for leading fashion designers and assisting with the reconstruction of the Coronation Robe of King George VI that was exhibited at Kensington Palace London. In 2011 Hazel wrote her first book Goldwork: Techniques Projects and Pure Inspiration published by Search Press which became one of the foremost guides to goldwork published in the English language. Sadly Hazel died in late 2018.
