Embroidery Exhibition


On Thursday mornings I go to the All Saints’ Embroidery Group that talented textile artist, Valerie Jeffries, runs up at the church room at All Saints' Church. To date, we have made a series of stitch samplers, a delightful contemporary Winter Wonderland landscape in white work and a book wrap embellished with Jacobean embroidery. Our next, and arguably most challenging project, is to work an embroidered Indian elephant embellished with traditional shisha (mirror) work. Valerie is planning an informal exhibition of our embroideries in the church room during the Scarecrow Trail. We need to get stitching, ladies!
