Stitch with Leamington Embroiderers, 1st August

National Stitch Day, 1st August

We are launching our August exhibition at the Arts Trail Studio, Leamington with activities for National Stitch Day, which just happens to fall on the opening day, Saturday 1st August.

The theme for the day is 'Alice in Wonderland' (2015 is the 150th Anniversary of the publication of Lewis Carroll's book).  Just pop along to the ArtsTrail Studio between 11 am and 5 pm, and have a go at a bit of creative playing.  We will provide the encouragement and materials, and you can take home your small creation ...

Leamington & District 'Continuous threads' Exhibition, 1st - 30th August

Our sincere thanks go to Ann Rogers, who gave us a superb talk last week.  We probably learned as much about Shakespeare's heroines - both evil and innocent - as we did about her lovely bags, and an hour and a half flew by!  What's more, we had the chance to pass round the bags and inspect the exquisite details, which was a real bonus.

We're all now gearing up for our 'Continuous threads' exhibition in August.  Our 2012 exhibition was very well received, and this one is even more special, since 2015 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Leamington & District Branch.  Here's the flyer for it, and we look forward to welcoming anyone who is in the Leamington area during August.

We will also be marking National Stitch Day on 1st August - exhibition opening day.  More details shortly.
