“Standing Stones” by Karen Hall
Sep 27th
Just wanted to share our admiration of some beautiful fabric Art seen recently at a lovely craft fair in Dyffryn Ardudwy which we were also invited to have a stall – Not only does the lady Karen Hall produce some fantastic machine embroidery pictures but she also makes wow factor fabric jewellery – as she purchased some of our fabric for the purpose of making the jewellery. We shall post images when she has turned our fabrics into jewels!
Llanidloes
Sep 14th
The summer 2007 exhibition at Llanidloes run by The Quilt Association is drawing to a close.
If you have not yet been, now is your last chance…….
The usual mix of antique and modern has caused some debate. Everyone has a view, and if it can inspire and generate debate and reaction then thats good for the future of quilting. Bumble Bee Quilting spent a day there this week. We certainly enjoyed the mixture of new and old, demonstrating changing techniques, colours and fabrics over time. Some high quality work indeed, this event should be engraved on all our calendars each year.
