Stitching on leaves and feathers to create striking visual effects.
The zoom talk given to our members by Richard Box at our last meeting was an excellent introduction to the art of machine embroidery. Thank you Richard for coming to the rescue at such short notice. We were sorry to hear that our organised speaker had gone down with covid and we wish her a hasty recovery.
Richard revealed the techniques used to create stunning pieces of fabric art. He paints directly from nature, taking numerous photographs and then using collage and hand machine embroidery techniques produces wonderful textile pieces.
