  Inspired by the banners

So was my daughter, Alice!

The British Textile Biennial is awesome. Please visit if you can.So far I’ve made it to Brierfield Mill (near Nelson) to see the vast display of banners (of all shapes, sizes, causes and eras) and Townley Hall to see an exhibition of cross stitch (old and new, painstaking and subversive). Both utterly fantastic and completely inspiring. Must see more before it’s too late…

 

 

Went by in a flash! Hard work but fun.

Sorry for the premature reminder, but the festive season will soon be upon us. Watch out for the latest banner by Glenys Walsh and I, at the Reindeer Parade this Saturday commissioned by Oldham Arts Development.
