16th January 2019: Victoria Riley.
Wow- what a full house for our first meeting of the New Year- existing members, new members & visitors! Burnley based batik fanatic Victoria told us about the history & styles of Indonesian batik, together with her experiences of living there & understanding the processes involved. Just when you thought you knew all about wax, think again, batik design, colours & the tools not as simple as you may imagine!

The Knitting & Stitch Show- Harrogate 2018

A thoroughly enjoyable day as a coach load of local stitchers descended on Harrogate. As usual we all ended up with purchases we need ( an eclectic selection!) & were inspired by a number of artists & exhibitors. Watch this space as we try & attract them back to Chelford to talk to us!

Enjoyed the Embroiderers' Guild '100 Heart War Stories' Exhibition.

21st November 2018: Beth Barlow
Beth's work was very thought provoking as she describes herself as a 'socially engaged artist' whose 'in depth work within communities, negotiating new relationship where everybody's expertise is acknowledged and creating works which are truly specific to the dynamics of particular communities.Seeking inspiration from real world issues and communicating complex issues simply' ( quote from her statement).
