KATHLEEN’S EXHIBITION AT TARLETON

It was a damp afternoon but about 100 people turned out to see Kathleen’s work and have afternoon tea at the village cricket club.

Kathleen was thrilled that so many people had come to see her work, which spanned about 50 of her 61 years as a member of the Guild.  She hardly had any time to have a cup of tea – there were so many people wanting to know how she had made her pieces.

The grand sum of £500+ was raised for Marie Curie care.

I hope that I can put together an article soon which will include photographs of some of her work.

RESULT FROM DYEING DAY

My selection of threads and fabrics from the ‘Dyeing’ workshop has amazingly been made up into a finished cushion.  I must be slipping – finding time to actually make something!!!

Dip-dyed threads and pattern dyeing.
These were used to create the very ‘jazzy’ cushion which goes with none of my furniture but was fun to make!
