Like Marmite



Suffolk Puffs can be a bit like marmite.......love them or hate them. 

When we explore fabric manipulation on the Advanced Stitched Textiles course there is always a groan when I mention Suffolk Puffs. This year I set the puff challenge to make at least one! It then became something of a running joke with puffs popping up all over the place and using lots of different media. 

Several students have used Suffolk puffs in their stitched assessments which will be exhibited at the Graduate Show this weekend 22nd and 23rd July 2023.

So please come along and 'Spot the Puff'
