Inspiration for a new series?

 

A fantastic discovery on a recent trip to Dorset - the chained library at Wimborne Minster

I need to do lots of research and maybe more visits to other chained libraries in the UK. I know there are other chained libraries in Wells Cathedral and Hereford Cathedral.







I am sure there are stories to discover about the books, the authors, the scribes, the collectors and the buildings.

It forward to finding out more.














Will it result in a new series of textile work?

Too early to tell. But I shall enjoy the research and hopefully something exciting will emerge.
