Edinburgh Exhibition

A bit late on this one as the exhibition has started. This photo is one of my pieces before it was finished. You'll see the finished pieces in my previous post as they were all at the Group Twelve exhibition at Aberlady earlier this year. Sadly I didn't have time to make any new work.

The exhibition is    ' Scottish Surfaces - An Embroiderers' Approach ' 

Work by members of the Embroiderers' Guild, Scottish Region.

It is on at the Art's Complex, St Margarets House, 151 London Road, Edinburgh EH7 6AE in Gallery 1 & 2. Opening hours Mon- Sat 10-4, Thurs 10 - 7, closed Sunday.

The exhibition has started and runs until Saturday 19th May 2012.

There is a real treat in Gallery 2 which is only open until 17th May. The embroiderered postcards stsched by members of the Embroiderers' Guild representing every nation taking part in the Olympics. I've seen a few as they were going up and they looked fantastic. Also a selection of the embroidered Rainbow Squares that were done by branches several years ago again a sight to see. Last but not least several cases displaying items from the Embroiderers' Guild Collection.

I'll be there stewarding on Tuesday morning between 10am & 1pm if you want to pop along and say 'hi'.

An exhibition not to be missed!

Craft Fair...

 This one is at St John's at the West End in Edinburgh and is on from Friday 9th December to 11th  December from 11am to 6pm each day...help!

 I've been at it again, making some more bird collages. I just love making them, they are such good fun. I'll have these ones with me at the craft fair.

The heart pictures are new but I forgot to photograph them before I put them in cellophane.
I quite like them so I hope they'll do well.

Sorry about the quality of the photos, it was dark outside and I didn't use the flash!

Etsy now open!

 At last I've finally got my act in gear and opened my Etsy shop.

 These are the items that I've put up for sale.

 Two birds and a couple of brooches.

 Just in time for Christmas!!!!

I'm hoping to continue adding new items throughout this month.
I hope you enjoy them.

Craft fairs...

New little chooks just in time for my next craft fair.
I will be at the Royal Concert hall in Glasgow at the 3D/2D craft fair on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th November 2011.

I will be selling a selection of framed and unframed pictures along with some cards and brooches. I will also have a few festive things for sale, cards and hanging ornaments.

Amongst the unframed pieces will be my new collaged mixed media birds which I have made to fit into an Ikea Ribba frame.

 I will also have more unframed pieces like the one below.

I will also be attending the 3D/2D craft fair at Edinburgh on the 9th - 11th December 2011. more details later.

I'm off to do more work.

Bye for now.
