Next Meeting: Feb 7, Stitch morning followed by a talk with Ailish Henderson

 


We look forward to a zoom talk by Ailish Henderson, a famous textile artist specialising in art stitched collage works, which have been exhibited both in the UK and overseas. Her work researches the connection between emotional repair and making. I am sure it will be a super afternoon.

"Stitching in the Dales Wednesday 15th May - 17th, 2024" hosted by Grassington Textile Art group

 Each year the Grassington Textile Arts Group host a three day textile bonanza and this year we are opening places to Non-members. There is a choice of two tutors: Kirstie Williams and Amanda Clayton.

Kirstie is offering a three day Textile Natural Dyeing and Printing Course. This 3-day workshop will cost £175(inclusive of kit). 

 Kirstie Williams is a practising artist and print maker. She currently works as the Maker Spaces Manager at The Art House in Wakefield as well as being a tutor and course administrator at Leeds Print Workshop.


Amanda Clayton will be tutoring a three day workshop "A Little Book of Leaves", exploring hand stitch using the simplicity of leaves as imagery/inspiration. A simple folded book will be produced that exploits the transparent qualities of the cloth used. This 3-day workshop will cost £175(inclusive of kit).
