If you want to see embroidery at its best, The Power of Stitch is on in Hamilton from 10 - 15 July at Waikato Diocesan School, Rever Road 9 am to 5 pm daily except sunday which is 4.00 pm close. Thursday 15 July is 12 Noon close.
Arts Post art gallery at 120 Victoria St has another exhibition running from 1 July to 3 August - opening times 10 to 4.30 daily. I have this piece called Lake Hawea in the Arts Post exhibition.
These exhibitions are run by the Waikato and NZ Embroideres' Guilds as the bi-annual Symposium.
Wright's Fabrics from Morinsville will be at the merchants mall at Albans Church Hall, Comries Road, Chartwell during the symposim.
I will be taking 3 classes over 4 days next week, so I will be happy but exhausted by Friday.
Talk to you next week.
Keep stitching.
Lake Hawea is made from wet felted merino wool to make the background 'photo', which has then been hand embroidered to depict a glorious calm wintery day at Lake Hawea near Wanaka, new Zealand. New Zealand flaxes have been embroidered in the foreground. This piece is for sale through my website for $225.00.
