Myfanwy Hart

Myfanwy Hart of Winifred Cottage, came to our Guild tonight to give a talk on 'The Embellisher'. She bought along several different makes and models for our members to try .

Jock was in charge of the 'shop'.

 Here's two of our members experimenting.

 At our Regional Day, one of our YE got the visitors choice award.  She came along tonight to collect her prize and cup.

 At the Linda Miller workshop on Saturday, Dot happened to mention that she had been on a course with Linda before and had made some panels.  We asked if she would bring it to our meeting tonight for everyone to see and- VOILA!!  That panel and the two ends are all machine stitched!!!!!

All that stitchin'!

Everyone who was on the workshop bought their work along for our members to see what they had been up to.

Textiles in Focus

I have wasted a fair bit of time tonight trying to put a Blogger gadget on my side bar- I have nearly thrown my teddy as Blogger has not been behaving!

Anyway what I am trying to tell you all, is that Textiles in Focus have released details of the Lecturer-Isobel Hall and the workshops. The workshops are for 2 hours and the tutors include Gina Ferrari, Myfanwy Hart and Viv Arthur to name but a few.
AND

Trade stalls to spend your Christmas money

AND
Exhibitions by MESCH, Threadsx4 and ERTF.

It should be a great event!

T.A.G.S.

A lovely day at Snape Maltings with the 'girls' from F.E.T. The day started off with coffee and a chat. It was then off to view the exhibition by T.A.G.S. I had intended to post more photos of their work, but blogger has been playing up and I have been trying for 40 minutes to upload photos, so only put up my favourites.

I loved the rust vessels by Glen Gerrard, this is one of three that she had made. (I am on Myfanwy Hart's rust dyeing workshop next week.)

This piece of shibori was by Anne-Marie Stewart.

There were other pieces that I liked, if I can, I will try and upload some tomorrow.

It was then a long leisurely lunch, a bit of retail therapy and then home.

Hubby and Kezzy were out at an airshow at Duxford, and Rhodri was out too, so I had the house to myself, a very rare occurrence so I indulged myself with a cup of coffee and took my stitching down the garden !
