Spring Knitting and Stitching Show 2019

Textile Art

Two excellent opportunities this week…

I was lucky enough to be able to take a quick trip to London over the weekend. It was very exciting to see my embroidery landscapes on display in London Olympia, in the National Needlecraft Awards exhibition. The artworks were in good company with the other excellent finalist entries. What a confidence boost and a real treat to see lots of other exquisite stitch-work! While I was there I browsed the huge range of stalls and treated myself to some interesting textured threads for future projects.

And on top of this, I received an email today to say my submission to become a member of the Society for Embroidered Work has been successful. The group was set up to promote stitched, contemporary art and I am delighted to gain membership.
