July '09

It was meeting day again this past weekend with show & tell as always very interesting.

This is a snapshot of Libby's "Suburban Garden",


while this is a snapshot of her "Plants On A Windowsill".


Both the above works will be part of a proposed forthcomming solo exhibition and feature strongly with fabric manipulation.


Jenny had been producing leaves in bobbin lace. Both the gum leaf & rose leaf above were experiments.


Donna had been chain stitching & buttonhole stitching rings. The piece was inspired by feeding the fish at the Bay of Isles. There were also some wonderful sketches, some of which can be seen here.

Robyn was adding beads to this scarf which was decorated with a machine embroidered lace motif ( John Deer Design), which had been embroidered on a Janome Embroidery Machine.


Cathy's piece above had been worked in a Jean Collyer workshop. Featuring painted brown paper, woven tyvek, teabag, paper & raised wooden skewers & stitching.

A relaxing day had by all.
