Southern Chinese Textiles

Judith Symmonds came and gave us a talk about

her collection of Southern Chinese Textiles.

I had seen her last year at our Embroidery Guild and knew that

Alveva Quilters would love to see and hear all about the textiles.

Judith is a wonderful speaker telling and showing us

the individual pieces,how they were made and some of the stories

behind them. The members were able

to handle every piece and see close up the

fantastic workmanship.

The Chairmans Challenge this year is

'Folded Patchwork Item', so seeing

some of this intricate folded and embroidered

textiles were really inspiring

but also makes you want to take a breath!

Thank you so much Judith for sharing

your collection and time with us it was really

appreciated.
