A tale of two shows
We find ourselves in a bit of a mess and we really don’t know what is going to happen in the next few days, let alone the next few weeks or months. Coronavirus is affecting our lives in many ways and I sincerely hope that you, your family and friends remain healthy and we don’t get anywhere near the worst case scenerios we are hearing.
Last week I had a wonderful gallery space and stand at The Scottish Quilting Show in Glasgow. I got a little stressed setting up but my son Joe sorted me out and, as per usual, was a great help throughout. I meet some old friends, made new friends and had an amazing response to my work. We sold lots of books, fabric, dyes etc ….. the stand looked very empty by the Sunday. We also managed to meet up with my daughter and her partner who live in Glasgow. So very happy Joe and Leah!
I spent the first few days this week working to get ready for the Fashion & Embroidery Show at the NEC next week. Long, satisfying days in the studio. But unfortunately I heard on Wednesday night that the show has been postponed due to coronavirus. I don’t know if this is an over reaction. Only time will tell. The organisers have postponed the show until the 25th to 28th June. I will (hopefully) be teaching that week so won’t be there. Fingers crossed that this and other shows are able to go ahead safely.
In the meantime I thought I would share some photos that the lovely Elisabeth Viguie-Culshaw took of the mini workshop I gave at last weeks show.
