Fumi hadn’t long returned from Japan .While there she found time to attend a course by Hikaru Noguchi.
Author of the book pictured.
It was all about mending and darning but not as we do it . It is worked from the back using blanket type stitch and maybe worked over a thin fabric layer for reinforcement.From the right side there is no hiding the mend ,rather celebrating it .
As she had been away Fumi just brought some small pieces to see what we thought about her ideas for displaying them in Prior.
She wondered about putting the piece below ,and accompanying pieces ,in hoops or frames.We thought frames would be easier and less work.
The work for exhibition is coming together and everything
should be quite varied and hopefully of interest to visitors.
