The Creative Textiles course was held at
The Old Artroom in Swaffham.
Jane Clarke was our tutor and she made it a fun time and we all stretched ourselves and achieved great stuff.
Once I had finished working with those glorious autumn colours, I worked on a blue fabric book.
This page is made up of threads trappped in Sulky and free machined to make a lacy delicate fabric.
Then the two pieces were layered on blue velvet.
Eyelet starburst embroidery on linen backed with a gold fabric.
Hardanger embroidery backed with gold fabric.
I went to a workshop held by the lovely Dilys Harvey.
I would never have believed that I could achieve this but Dilys tuition was so helpful.
This is the only embroidery that I have worked on since I was at school... a looooooooong time ago.
