Making an exhibition of ourselves!

 Three of us had a 'grand day out' staffing the Megastitchers' stand at the Manchester Antique Textile Fair last Saturday.  We had a good display of the variety of work we do - group projects, individual pieces from our in-house workshops and from other outside sessions members had attended. There was a good level of interest in our activities (ie non-stop talking!) and in our displays of old threads.  We also sold some of our old magazines, so the car wasn't quite as full on the way home.

Congratulations to the seven Textile Society bursary candidates who were awarded £500 each.  There was some amazing work.

Thanks to Ro and Petra for all their help on the day. Here are some photos from before the show opened.
