I met so many wonderful people at 'Textiles in Focus'.
including Val who is one of the founders of
a great place to view wonderful quilts, inspiration and videos.
You can browse and then become a member.
I spent hours viewing and enjoying myself.
take a look for yourself.
Today Jenn and I went to Cottenham College near Cambridge to
see the 'Textile In Focus" Exhibition.
We go every year at this time and it was as inspirational as ever.
Thank you, to all the Exhibitors for your time, wonderful displays
and inspiration.
Above, is the very inspirational Sharon Osborne, her textile books and
demonstration pieces are so textural and wonderful.
She is an amazing lady and we bless her, for her
creativity and patience.
See more of what transpires from this inspiration,
on my blog and website shortly.
Just look at Sylvia's first quilt!
Finished and labelled.
"Made with Love by Great Grandma".
An heirloom for the future.
Made in time for her new Great Grand Child, that's soon on it's way.
She's also crocheting a baby shawl.
A very lucky baby.
I always love to see the finished work and it's wonderful
to share.
Well done! Sylvia.

Having a break from sewing, these two ladies decided to look at
one of the books I carry in my inspiration box.
It's all about Japanese folded patchwork.
By the time they had seen it cover to cover,
they wanted to make nearly every quilt and wallhanging in the book!
I can see trouble ahead with these two and their ideas!
How many hours in a day?
This is the start of Pippa's textile tree.
Lots of textile paint,fabrics and machine stitching.
Pippa is really getting to grips with her machine now.
See this develop over the weeks to come.
Carol has the hand stitched binding to put on her
kimono left to do.
It is really looking fantastic, a very special piece.
