I have moved now to Poole in Dorset so am no longer member of Macclesfield branch. Margaret has set up SilkTownStitchers2. I shall endeavour to convert my new local EG branch to blogging!

Here are two of the interesting pieces of embroidery from the Guilds vast collection. In March we had the opportunity to study these wide ranging examples in detail taking photos and making sketches so that we can interpret the designs, colours or shapes in our own style. These will then be part of the June meeting when they will be on show to all members and a vote will be made. There was a wide range of work going on and a far amount of chat as well!

Maggie explained how she came to return to university to study embroidery and how her fascination with Stumpwork evolved. We all marvelled at her beautiful work and were astonished by how much Maggie fits in to a day! Maggie with her beautiful samples. Posted by Silk Town Stitchers.
