Well, there is an Autumn feel in the air around here and I am afraid the heating is being switched on much more regularly. That being said it’s great that we can now get out and about a bit more and I do love it when the leaves change colour.
I will be running another workshop at the beautiful Whalton Manor at the beginning of November. I am sure it will have changed a lot since my last visit in the summer when we were “pounding flowers”. This time we will be using some fabric manipulation and basic embroidery stitches to decorate little boxes (is it too early to mention the “C” word?). Full details and bookings can be made via eventbright.co.uk https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/manipulated-knotted-tickets-179233902427
If you live in or near Newcastle, you might be interested in a Open Day for Newcastle Embroidery &Textile Art (newly formed group previously Newcastle Embroiderers Guild). Saturday 16th October 1pm – 4pm at St. Bartholomew’s Church, Church Hall. 3 Station Road, Benton, NE12 9NQ https://www.newcastleembroideryandtextileart.com/
