MALADY DESIGNS

After working for a number of years in wood turning, which included being a judge at AWTEX, giving numerous woodturning demonstrations and making ‘how to’ videos for a woodworking retail company, Tracey has turned her attention to straw marquetry, a centuries-old craft that involves the delicate arrangement of straw to create intricate designs and patterns.  

Tracey's transition from wood turning to straw marquetry represents a new chapter in her creative journey.  Although there are very limited learning resources in Australia, Tracey has dedicated herself to mastering the techniques and nuances of this intricate art form and to share her newfound knowledge and enthusiasm with others who are interested in exploring the timeless allure of straw marquetry.
