Festival of Quilts ...... new greeting cards!
It’s only 11 more sleeps before son Joe and I load up my van and his car and head off to this years Festival of Quilts. Held at the NEC, Birmingham, it is the biggest quilt show in Europe with galleries, workshops, competition quilts, The Creative Textile Studio and hundreds of traders. I’ll be on stand E26 in Hall 8 and am looking forward to a hectic, sometimes chaotic, hopefully profitable few days. I’m also looking forward to meeting up with many old friends, please do stop by and say hello!
This year I will have new greeting cards on the stand. I had them made for my solo exhibition earlier this year and had a great response from visitors to the gallery. There are 10 designs and I’m really happy with the quality. (I used a company called The Dandy Arthouse, great service). I will be adding them to my webshop after the show.
I’m also going to be taking some older, small pieces of art from my Structures series. I’ll be selling them at a fraction of their original price as I really can’t take all of my back catalogue when we move next year. Each piece is 8 inches (20cm) square and stretched over canvas. I’ll be putting any that are left over on my webshop after the show.
Best get back to printing fabric, those Wonky Print Inspiration Packs don’t make themselves!
