Rainforest and so on!

We had a wonderful afternoon at SerenTex and I will share a few snippets with you from our Rainforest exhibition which will be opening at the Ruthin Library, North Wales on May 15th and will be open until 19th June.

I don’t know where Rosemary finds the time to do all this fantastic work, but I’m always so impressed with the quality and the quantity of work she makes. Today she surprised us all by bringing in one of her journal pages converted to textile and shown above. Isn’ t it wonderful?

Gaynor’s Demo and more tasters from our Rainforest work

It was Gaynor’s turn to give us a demo this week and she showed us how to do some work using the hexagon and at the next meeting we will all be trying to turn out something similar.

This first piece of work is not from the Rainforest project, but is being stitched by Rosemary who says she picks it up now and then and continues adding to it. The textures are unbelievable.

Here is Sue showing us some of the work she’s making for another project of ours and it’s looking so good.

All the other photos are little tasters from the work in progress for our coming exhibition on The Rainforest.

Miriam is going to kill me when she see’s this. I’m sure she would like to say hello to her family in Australia!
