Hand embroideries/needleweaving/free machine embroidery. Collages with paints & fabric
Where did you learn your textle skills?
University and via family background
Anything else you want to say to introduce yourself to the group??
I teach textiles part time at a local art centre. I taught C&G embroidery at College for many years. I like to sit in the evenings and hand sew but often need 'a push' to start me on a new project. Hence wanting to join your group.
I echange fibre art postcards with a small group and one of our members is Annette Jeavons wse work I admire.
Hello Christine,
It was lovely to see your work on stitching fingers. You taught me City and Guilds Embroidery at Gaywood Hall in kings Lynn and I've never looked back.
Thank you.
Best wishes and Happy Christmas,

Hi Christine,
I was just about to ask for your email address so I can send my postal address to you for the FPC Xmas exchange. But I've just seen a message from Mary Lou Curry in Canada asking if she can join this swap, so rather than me swap with two people, I wondered if you would like to swap with Mary Lou instead of me? I've already heard from Shelley, so my swap is fixed up. I'll leave a message with Mary Lou to contact you.
Christine - I love your latest photos, especially the paintings - you're very talented. I wish I could paint or draw. The painting of the female form is stunning.
Hi Christine,
I suppose the petals on the cast-on stitch just curl up on their own because of the tension. I really hadn't noticed but I'm glad you like them. You should try cast-on stitch and see if it works the same for you.
Here's a link for the Oglala stitch.
Have fun. :)
