Two makers from opposite ends of the country arrive at Dom Chinea’s Maker’s Marquee, hoping he and his team can help to change their lives. \n\nEmmy from Devon is a talented glassmaker returning to her craft after an eight-year break, and Zita is an ambitious textile designer from Fife hoping to swap her day job for her own business. Zita’s mentor Piyush loves her eye for colour and design but isn’t keen on the tools and techniques she’s using. Zita loves working with a sackcloth jute fabric, but Piyush is concerned it doesn’t feel high-end enough. Will sustainability champion Zita stick to her guns or take on Piyush’s advice to embrace alternatives to jute to widen her market and improve the quality of her textiles? \n\nMeanwhile, mentor Allister is so impressed with Emmy’s glassmaking skills that he has grand plans for her pieces, but can she live up to his high expectations? With only two months to turn their skills and love of making into moneymaking businesses, can they make it at market?
