Carol hadn’t brought them along ,but she is continuing with the birds from her garden .
She had taken the idea of a circle and created a variety of small pieces using whole and parts of a circle in greens. She had also taken some buttons and used them as covers for tiny concertina books.
Bristol Stitchers had Paula Simpson whose book is ‘Art Of Kantha ‘ give a talk and run a workshop on
Kantha .Visit www.bristolstitchers.wordpress.com to see some other pieces.Look under May 24.Here are Carol’s first pages and choice of fabrics.
The end result would be a book showing a variety of ways of using this iconic technique.
Carol had as usual been involved behind the scenes helping her daughter with a project ‘ Broad Meadow ‘
Which runs in Broadmead Bristol until 20th June .It is an installation of planters containing the sort of plants that might have been growing when Broadmead had been a meadow .For more information visit www.headfirstbristol.co.uk where you can book free tickets and find out more about the project .
