SATURDAY 12TH MAY– NEW TALK AND SUNDAY 13th MAY - NEW WORKSHOP

Unfortunately due to ill health Linda Rudkin will not be with us for this weekend  talk and workshop.
We wish her well and hope she will soon be recovered.

However, due to a lot of re-arrangement by our Chairman and Programme Secretary we have now organised the following -

The Talk on Saturday will be by Jo Landy, a  member of the Southport Contemporary Arts Group. 
Her talk is called from 'Print to Stitch' and is about her personal journey in textiles and the use of multi media to reach design conclusions- she will be bringing samples of her work etc.
Look her up at: southportcontemporaryarts.com/JoLandy

Photographs of her work are shown below -

The Sunday workshop will be with Priscilla Jones  and is titled -  ‘MAKE DO AND MEND’.  Requirements list will be available at the Saturday meeting or contact Sue Chisnall.
Priscilla graduated from MMU in 1997 and if you want to see what she does go to priscilljones.wordpress.com and it will take you to her website – lovely pictures of her work.

ALSO for those of you who take STITCH magazine – her work is on this month’s cover and she has details of a project inside.
Should be a good day – wish I could come but have other commitments.

    1. Thank you Lynn.
      It is nice to know that someone so far away takes an interest in what we do.
      We have a lovely group of ladies of all ages - all very keen to stitch and experiment and we try to provide the speakers and tutors they deserve.
      Best wishes. Sandra
