It's the date that inspires me - at the moment.

Today: 14/8/22.

What to post??

My local tapestry group has participated in putting up an exhibition at the Handweavers and Spinners Guild. We put it up last Saturday. 

Included is the travelling tapestry exhibition that I have participated in for many years. It used to be for the Aus/NZ group but the New Zealand aspect is no longer. And the Australian aspect is probably not going to happen again either. We usually have up to 50 small tapestries but this year there were 'only' 17. Very nice they are too!

To make the exhibition fill the space better, our local group has put in some more tapestries. Each member was invited to contribute up to 4 tapestries, no more than 30cm square. 

I have put in a texture themed set. I have included my failed Aqueduct Trail one, a sample from my Ema Shin workshop, an older piece that experimented with texture and my recent Finger Labyrinth piece. 

Other members of our group have put in pieces too - it is actually a very good exhibition!

Unfortunately, the guild rooms are only open on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at the moment. But that shouldn't take away from our enjoyment of being part of the exhibition and being able to promote tapestry weaving. 

Hard at work, putting up the pieces in a visually appealing way. (Note that I was taking photos, not being a decision-maker!)
