Tracing the Blueprint. 24 February - 26 March 2012. Devon Guild of Craftsmen

I am curating, together with Jacqueline Sarsby, an exhibition at the Devon Guild of Craftsmen, in their Riverside Gallery, entitled Tracing the Blueprint. The exhibition traces the path of indigo-printed textiles from the Hapsburg Empire into Hungarian village life,and from Europe, via colonisation and assimilation, to the Xhosa and other peoples of Southern Africa.

We will be giving a talk about blue print and its history on 15 March 2012 at 6.30pm. Tickets £7 (£5)

I will also be running a workshop together with Sigi Thompson, Stitch In Blue: A patchwork workshop, on Saturday 17 March 2012 between 10am and 4pm. Participants will be able to make a block of hand-stitched patchwork. The workshop is suitable for beginners. £45 (£35)

Tickets for both the talk and the workshop can be booked in advance, 01626 832223
