HELLO EVERYONE


There still seems to be lots going on, but I don't know about you, but I do love to keep myself busy.


We have just had 3 wonderful days with Matthew Harris and a room full of lovely students. Everyone work so hard and I will share some of this work with you in the next newsletter.


Meanwhile I am pleased in the way that my own exhibition work is progressing but I still have a long way to go.


Here is a little taster of work so far. I am using polyester combined with the bark cloth that I use in my work. The polyester has been dipped into plaster of Paris initially, folded and left to set before applying it to the bark cloth. Like I said this is just a snapshot of the finished works.

Metal threads: A creative approach to Line, flow and drawing


3/4/5 October 2025


I would love to welcome a few more people on this course which will be Hanny's first teaching experience at Moor Hall. Those on the course will be led by a very experienced tutor and I encourage you to look at these two links.

Her workshop will be very experimental and she is well known for her innovative and contemporary approaches to Goldwork Embroidery.


Anyone with a love for stitch could be considering this thoughtfully prepared course.


Hanny is no novice in her field of Embroidery. In 2023 she was awarded the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust Award, and was the winner of the inaugural Sanderson QEST Rising Star Craft Award 2024. She teaches goldwork nationally and internationally. How lucky we are to have her come here to the studio to teach.

WILLIAM SCOTT

An on-line course



30th Sept Intro ~ followed by 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th Oct

William Scott is another one of my favourite artists who gained notoriety in the 1950's with his abstract paintings of still-lifes in which he reduced his subject matter right down to a few basic lines. He valued the importance of 'space' in his compositions and it is these elements that we shall explore in paper, cloth and stitch.

EXPLORATORY TEXTILES

A course where students use the 'sketchbook' to explore their own themes, through sampling, note taking, research and testing out ideas. This is done through drawing and sampling and works with cloth and stitch.
