Finished Pieces of Work

Wendy has finished her vase in the flat but is not sure if she will turn it into a vase or possibly a book cover.

The fronds have been printed and green "hairy" wool applied to give the lovely texture of ferns across the middle.

The silver gives a lovely sheen that catches the light.


Whatever she decides to do it will look beautiful with the texture, embroidery and colours.

Thank you Wendy, we are waiting to see what you will do with it.




 Christina has finished  her delicate 3D pale green and blue vase. She has added interest with hand embroidery  and added a pop of colour  with orange beads.

She has made the join a feature and curved the top for interest.


It is a lovely vase to look at and a big thank you goes to Christina for sharing it with us.

Voting was carried out for the Chair's Challenge of embroidered items to fit in a box and the winner was Christina whose work had been selected from a whole range of entries.

Congratulations to Christina on her beautiful entry and she was presented with the glass bell to hold for one year.


It was an enjoyable day and members were able to chat to each other about what they were working on and get more ideas for their own work.
