Jacqui Parkinson

Jacqui Parkinson was born in Manchester. She became a Christian at the age of fourteen and became fascinated with the Bible.  She lived most of her adult life in London, with her husband Rob Frost, the Methodist church’s national evangelist. She taught drama and ran the Lantern Arts Centre.  Moving to Devon after his death, she focussed on her textile art, and she has now  established a national reputation for breath taking large scale textile art in cathedrals.
