Visitors to this morning’s Coffee Stop were treated to live demonstrations from textile artists Sheila Parkinson, Juliet Tomkins and Maureen Wallace, who are the latest exhibitors in our Hub Gallery.
The ladies are a small group of textiles artists, who met whilst doing a creative textiles course at Nelson and Colne college in 2009. They now meet once a month at Barley Village hall, to work together, exchange ideas and to chat!
Their work uses a range of mediums, but all textile connected, they silk-paint, felt-make, machine-embroider and weave, in fact the sky’s the limit!
Inspiration comes from the world they live in, but mainly from the natural beauty of the countryside around Pendle.
Their wonderful work will be on display at Trinity from May 4 until 31.
