Everyone was busy working today, mostly for our exhibition next month. Some were tidying up workbooks, some were finishing off pieces and some, like me, were frantically sewing their final piece. We have planned a 'Dyeing Day' in June, there are a few members who haven't done any dyeing and some who don't like to do it at home, so we thought it would be a good idea to get together and pool our resources and have a go.
Plans for our own exhibition are under way now, the flyers are printed and being distributed, the hall is booked and the display boards hired from the Art Club. I reminded everyone to bring their 'Chinese Whisper' pieces and there was a groan and some frantic chatter as people tried to remember where they had put them. That's the only problem with a project that goes over a long period of time.
Here is some of the work that was being done on Thursday.
Roma has been to a Batik class and was stitching into her printing.
Ann has produced one of the most beautiful pieces of silk paper I have ever seen. It really is gorgeous.
Jenny was searching through her stash of coloured papers when I took this picture.
Pam is working in beads doing a piece based on the sea.
