Stitch club


Just lately Carol has been very involved with her daughter's project in Broadmead .She has researched the kind of plants that would once have populated the area .There will be large planters plantedup with these outside of 'Sparks' at the end of May. We hope it goes well.
 As a consequence her work has taken a back seats.This month she brought along a Stitch club workshop which entailed recycling a vegetable net to create lichen/fungus which is 'very Carol' 


It was heated so it melted but in a controlled way ,see above against Sally's sleeve.

Carol keeps such detailed notes of the Stitch club  www.textileartist.org workshops that she can refer back and use them whenever she pleases .


This one was run by Nerissa Cargill -Thompson and you can find out more about her work here ;



It also used a suit trouser leg printed with bubble wrap and the addition of Suffolk Puffs to represent  limpets or bracket fungus.
