New ideas on the go...

Had a lovely evening playing with lots of materials in my new cotton rag concertina book. I want to add more of my art work into my collages so I have been experimenting with different ideas and compositions.

The making of my shoes...by Janet Middleton

Here are the photos of the making of my shoes...

Barkcloth th Artcloth at the NEC

Had a fabulous day at the NEC, especially as we got to spend an hour with Bobby Britnell on the Barkcloth to Artcloth. This work between Bobby and Janet Middleton was for the charity Hands up for Uganda. I was asked to take part along side a wide range of people to create a textile piece on a piece of barkcloth. These were then made into shoes. I have been following their progress on facebook and to see them all together was amazing.

Another lovely stitched collage workshop

Well the wind blew and the rain rained and we spent a lovely Staurday in my studio creating some fabulous collages.
 Everyone had a busy day and some fabulous collages were created. I am still amazed at the variety of the work produced. If you fancy having a go check out the datesl of future workshops on the dates and availability page on my blog. xx
