Going into Production

 

The Sutton Hoo mask design first commissioned by the Quilters' Guild for the AGM held in Suffolk in 2022 has proved to be an instantly recognisable image brought to life by surface design and stitch. 

This is offered as a workshop called 'Making your mark(al)' and original framed stitched versions are available for sale - each one different - at forthcoming exhibitions.




In an exciting new departure I have had the design printed onto fabric as a repeat to be able to make up into tote bags. Not exactly mass production but a quicker way of producing an original design and available at a good price.

The bags should be on sale at the Spotlight Textiles https://spotlighttextiles.blogspot.com/ exhibition at The Pond Gallery, Snape Maltings, Snape IP17 1SP from 28th April until 3rd May
