A building and a book cover ...

... no, there's no connection between them.  They are simply two fabulous pieces completed by members.

Firstly, here is Jenny's finished piece from the recent Sense of Place workshop:

Jenny said she thought she had been a bit heavy handed with the paint, but the background beautifully sets off the stitched building.

Shay received a surprise phone call from a lady who had bought a piece of Shay's work at the last Textileplus Open Studios. The lady is an artist and her request was for Shay to make a book cover for a friend - also a textile artist.  So, no pressure there!

The cover was made from some pieces Shay had: some were tea dyed or painted with acrylic, and a piece from an old hanky.   Shay says, "I'm glad to say she was delighted with it." Hear, hear!
