Creative Stitch Graduate Show 2024

 

A date for your diary - the Creative Stitch Graduate Show 2024 is coming round again and will be at Needham Market Community Hall on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st July 2024

We will have a display of work from nine students completing the Advanced Stitched Textiles course. A wide variety of experimental and innovative work including 3D pieces, fantasy costumes and installations.  

There will be displays from eight Creative Stitched Textiles students taught by my colleague Diane Tompkins and from her extended Cosy Cabin class from last year who just would not go home and insisted upon another year!

Plus work from eight students completing my Bridging the Gap course of students preparing to start the Advanced course next year. 

35 student displays in all. So LOTS to see.

E.A.S.T.

 

East Anglian Stitched Textiles (E.A.S.T.) have invited me to join as a member from May 2024. 

I am thrilled to join this group of talented artists whose work I have admired for many years.

E.A.S.T. works with a mentor Anthea Godfrey and each series of work for exhibition takes two years to make with the first year dedicated to research and design. This slow and thoughtful approach results in a rich body of work.

Having been working very hard over the last few years to produce work for several exhibitions each year this deeper and wider approach is very appealing. I hope and think my work will improve as a result. 

'Bridging the Gap' exhibition will be shown at The Grundisburgh House Gallery from 24th April - 7th May 2024
