Creative Stitch Graduate Show 2022

 I was very proud of all the Creative Stitch students who completed their course and exhibited work at the Graduate Show 2022. Here is just a sample of a few of the exhibits by my Advanced Stitched Textiles students.


Final piece by Heather Evans. Inspired by a flint stone.









A nuno-felted caplet as part of a fantasy costume by Irmgard MacAskill

















Final piece by Phillip Rees. Inspired by the pneumatic bone structure of bird skeletons. Wax resist and multiple layers.

















Fantasy costume by Penny Evans inspired by the Eri silk moth. This piece is featured on Fibre Art Now magazine summer issue 2022









The next Advanced Stitched Textiles course with Creative Stitch starts at the beginning of October 2022 in Nowton near Bury St Edmunds. More information at www.sefwi.org.uk/creative_stitch or from me by email maryelmcintosh@gmail.com
