TASTER: Structures Exhibition with Kate Findlay - Part 4
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 01-May-2016
Kate Findlay shows us round the final section of quilts that were on show at Lady Sew & Sew in Henley on Thames. Their warehouse has a section of space that is often used for showcasing exhibtions, so always worth keeping an eye on what’s happening there. Go to Lady Sew & Sew for more information.
In this section we learn more about Kate’s own entry into the exhibition as well as seeing a wonderful corset with matching wallhanging that is so beautiful, it could have been made for a film set.
We also get to see more about Thermofax printing, which the textile girls really seem to like to use.
