Textile Art and Embroidery. Festival Of Quilts 2015. August 11, 2015. Am now home from The Festival of Quilts. Alison and I had a lovely and very fruitful time. We met loads of lovely people and had a lot of laughs. Our stand – terrible light so not good pics. We have decided we can no longer fit a quart into a pint pot so have booked a bigger stand for next year. We also had work in the Quilters in Action exhibition. As did fellow room 6ers Sue Chapman and Lynne Onions. A brief rundown of the highlights.

Textile Art and Embroidery. Normal Service has been Resumed. April 14, 2015. Common. Textile art. I have taken a bit of a break part of which has been spent in Cambodia. I thoroughly recommend it as a destination, the people are lovely and very laid back in spite of a very tragic history. Inevitably went to Angkor Wat and took some probably very cliched pics. We also went to Pnomh Penh, Kampot and an island, Koh Rong Samoleon which was relaxing and totally off grid. This is how far I have got. Textiles&#...

Stitching With Attitude: QUIRKY COLOUR NAMES
http://stitchingwithattitude.blogspot.com/2015/06/quirky-colour-names.html
Tuesday, 23 June 2015. In my previous post, I mentioned about colour names and the vast number of colours available to us. Fifty Shades of Grey is just a drop in the old bucket! Perhaps because I work with colour so closely on a daily basis, the massive number of colours and colour names does not phase me that much. Matching them up is another story! Just how do these companies come up with these names and we have often wondered just WHO is responsible for the task? Http:/ www.slate.com/blogs/the...So it...

Annette's Textile Tales: December 2012
http://annettestextiletales.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, 16 December 2012. Much has happened since I was last here, but some things don't change. . . Walking with Rowan and a friend last week when the countryside was wrapped in frost and the air so cold it made me catch my breath,. We were on a ridgeway path ,about 3.30 in the afternoon and suddenly the sky turned pink as the sun broke through the clouds as it set. The dull, grey landscape changed before our eyes. A very happy Christmas to all.xx. Posted using BlogPress from my iPad. I'm always looking...

Stitching With Attitude: Boro - the Original Recycled Textile
http://stitchingwithattitude.blogspot.com/2014/10/boro-original-recycled-textile.html
Sunday, 5 October 2014. Boro - the Original Recycled Textile. In today's world, the words reuse, recycle and repurpose have become increasingly common and in recent times, there has been more emphasis placed on the recycling of textiles. But in Japan, in the 19th and early 20th century, the reuse of textiles was more of a humble nature, emanating out of necessity and a societal effort to avoid waste rather than dealing with environmental issues and energy saving.

Stitching With Attitude: FIFTY SHADES - A Fantasy in Fabric
http://stitchingwithattitude.blogspot.com/2015/02/fifty-shades-fantasy-in-fabric.html
Thursday, 5 February 2015. FIFTY SHADES - A Fantasy in Fabric. In mid November 2014, I was invited by Virginia Spiegel to be one of the chosen artists to participate in the "100 Fiberart for a Cause" 2015 fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. It is always a pleasure to work with Virginia and due to the high calibre of fiber artists selected it is also a fun challenge for me to create something special for the campaign. I was seeking the more " vanilla" variety! Eventually in a completely unexpected...

Stitching With Attitude: March 2013
http://stitchingwithattitude.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 24 March 2013. Places to escape, wander and think. And then asked if some of us would share areas near home where we steal away for some quiet moments. It is about 26 miles from home - not that far and easily accessible by car. IT is the delightful little village of Port Stanley on the shores of Lake Erie, the fourth largest lake in surface area of the five Great Lakes system and the shallowest of the Great Lakes. Intricate patterns are formed in the sand. And the desolate life guard's tower stee...
