'Strip Show'

finally finished my contribution to South West Textile Group's show at 'Fashion and Embroidery' NEC Birmingham 16-19 March.
15cm wide by about 150cm long.
quite difficult to photograph long thin things and have any definition so i have photographed it in sections just as it was made. do come along and see the show.

  2. A fascinating piece, I really like all the different grid structures, I too would like to know more about the inspiration for it.

    1. Hi Sharon, as i explained above to Debbie the initial inspiration was taken from a Michael Clark ballet and i have reused the programme text and images with some good old fashioned stitch
