March Meeting

 At the March meeting Angela Oswald introduced us to Boro, the Japanese darning technique.  Angela gave a short talk about the fascinating history of the technique and illustrated her talk with information and photographs of her visit to Japan. She also spoke of the types of fabric used and the hierarchical system in Japan. Angela is a good speaker and has great knowledge of her subject. Here are some examples of her work, inspired by her travels and her research.
