Knitting and Stitching Show

Posted on

Well this weekend was the annual Knitting and Stitching show at Alexandra Palace in London. It was heaving as usual, it pays to sharpen your elbows!

Amongst the many exhibitors, the Bridging Arts Sarees were on display, but more about that in the next post! I taught a class on the Learning Curve on Sunday based on my Sari design. The class was a 2 hour introduction to embroidery and we covered applique, surface stitching, beads and sequins and a little bit of goldwork.

Thanks to everyone who came, you all did a great job! It's great to see so many people producing so much work and to see that the creative world is alive and well despite the current economic climate. There was certainly alot of buying going on!
