Production manager, embroiderer and Tartan BFF, Lorraine Gomez worked on a black organic silk sales sample for Tartan Mind Mend during lockdown.

Tartan Mind Mend: Tell us about your re-imagined Tartan piece and what inspired you.
Lorraine Gomez: I am honoured to be included in this project, I’m not a creative, but loved working out what do to and then stitching it all by hand.

TMM: What creative pursuits, little rituals, or things to look forward to, helped you to keep going during lockdown?
LG: Talking and texting with friends and family regularly, cooking and the Mind Mend project ❤️.

TMM: Tell us about what you do, that defines being a creative to you.
LG: I am not a creative but I work with creatives in apparel which I really enjoy.

TMM: How has the lockdown affected your creative process?
LG: For me doing this project during lockdown was something to look forward to after finishing work and maybe I will continue doing embroideries!

TMM: When the world opens back up, what is the first thing you would love to do?
LG: The best things will be seeing friends and family and eating out.
