The Scottish Quilt Championships 2010

My quilts arrived back from The Scottish Quilt Championships and I was surprised to discover that as well as the three 1st prizes they had collected, ‘Pink’ had also taken 3rd place in the Large Wall Hanging section. My trophies followed, three engraved platters. I’m not sure where they’re going to live yet, but I’ll find them a good spot.

Schizm. Oriel Ynys Mon 2010

I’m really enjoying teaching my Beginner and Intermediate groups and their work is coming along really well. Such fun! There’ll be pictures soon, possibly after our Christmas pot luck supper where we will also have a show and tell. From 13th November to 24th December, as part of Oriel Ynys Mon’s textile themed Chritmas Fair (Anglesey Gallery), there will be an exhibition of my quilts and wall hangings in the main gallery. I’m finishing off a few new pieces and resolving what goes where. I always enjoy looking round their exhibitions but this time I’ll feel very much at home. Pop in and see my work if you’re in the area, and as there are a number of textile based craftspeople who are selling their work, you may also find a few special Christmas presents. Oriel Ynys Mon opens seven days a week from 10:30 to 17:00. Address: Oriel Ynys Mon, Rhosmeirch, Llangefni, Anglesey LL77 7TQ tel: 01248 750282 Dorothy
