E17 Art Trail

Well the Art Trail is over for another year but it has been an exciting, as well as a tiring couple of weekends - but I must admit to looking forward to doing it all again next year!

I took part in a group show with a number of other designers, the main other ones being Harriet Hammel, soft scupltures, and Elizabeth Pell, paintings. Although I didn't sell anything I got a lot of positive feedback about my work and in particular was invited to submit some work to another up-coming exhibition at "The Mill" , a local community base that hosts exhibitions as part of his work and also to take part in their Christmas Craft fair.

Back home, and back to the day job, my current projects are a small pieced quilt based on a design from Barbara Chainey's book Fast Quilts from Fat Quarters and some of the fabrics I dyed at the Festival of Quilts, and then a Gold Altar Frontal for my local church. - Oh and some items to sell at the Christmas Craft Fair. Should keep me busy!
And here are some pics.

More of Harriet's amazing soft sculptures - the detail she puts into these is incredible.
