Game of Thrones...

As promised if a bit late...here are a few close up images of my bird. Well, to be completely honest, I didn't design it but I did have free reign with the stitches and the colours from the threads they supplied... I still call it "my bird" all the same. I'm sure that'll be ok or at least I hope it will be...!

It is situated above the White Walker's head on The Hardhome Embroidery, named after the huge battle from series 5 of Game of Thrones.

 I've really been a bit slack on the blogging front, I completely missed the post I should have done about the Knitting and stitching Show which came to Edinburgh at the end of April. I fair enjoyed it by the way, managed to find lots of things to buy, mostly stuff I had to have but didn't really need...familiar?

Anyway, what I should have said was that I had a piece of work selected to be on show at the Edge - textile artists scotland stand. I was delighted that it was chosen for the exhibition and have had lots of lovely comments about it.

Here are a few images.

I'm only showing a little at the moment as it is destined to go on to the Edge exhibition in Edinburgh, a must see if you are interested in textiles, even if you're not it'll be a great exhibition.

I'll give more details later but it's on at 

Edinburgh Palette, St Margaret's House, London Road 

from Saturday 2nd July to Saturday 23rd July.

Bye for now.

Nearly there!

Some of the pieces that I will have with me at Ladybank. The collaged birds are unframed pieces and the I pod covers are made with my own hand printed & hand dyed fabrics.

If you're in the Fife area come and visit, you can have a trip across to Falkland, or further along the road to Cupar then St. Andrews. Places to visit, things to see, places to eat in, it would make for a great day out, just remember to pop in to me and say "hi" on your way!

Off the Rails Arthouse, just outside the station in Ladybank.

Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th April 10am to 5pm.

Thursday 16th & Friday 17th April 12noon to 5pm.

Just a quick reminder to say that the Pittenweem Arts Festival is about to start. It runs from Saturday 6th August to Sunday 14th August 2011. Most venues have a private view on Friday evening (5th August). I will have work displayed in Funky Scottish which is on the High Street near the Festival office.
I'll post some photos of my work soon...I'm still finishing things off!!!
