'On My Doorstep' and JETS winner

There are a few days left to catch our exhibition at All Saints (Parish) Church in Leamington, which continues until Sunday 4th November.






It's great to be able to report that Harry, one of our Junior Embroiderers who only joined the group in March, won the West Midlands Regional Day junior competition.  

Harry's winning entry is a jar with a stitched lid featuring a seahorse, and comes with a matching seahorse pin.  It is on display during the exhibition.



We were also delighted that Alex Messenger, the Guild's Artistic Director for JETS, was able attend the exhibition private view evening to present Harry with his certificate.  Alex came with Guild CEO, Terry Murphy, and joined a number of local dignitaries, among whom were Leamington Mayor, Heather Calver, Mike Hitchins, Mayor of Kenilworth, and Stephen Cross, Warwick District Council Chairman, who were all very complimentary about the branch's skills and creativity.


Exhibition opening times are shown below. Do come and have a look if you can.
