Spot the crafty banner!
‘The Subversive Stitch’ exhibition. I secretly placed the banners made at the workshops around the People’s History Museum.
The Book Barge. My new favourite place. Next stop Skipton. The lovely Sarah of The Book Barge gave me a circus homemade clipboard after our shared tales of love for the circus. I hope that we will both go to Gifford’s circus one day and begin our own barge Circus.
Stitch a banner inspired by the "On the March" exhibition, The Secret Stitch
Tomorrow I will be running a textile workshop at The People’s History Musuem in Manchester from 11am-4pm. http://www.phm.org.uk/whatson/stitch-a-mini-protest-banner-2/
Participants will be shown how to cross stitch messages of protest inspired by the current banner exhibition by Ed Hall named “On the March.”
I have created some “Secret Stitch Kits” which includes:
- 14 count Aida fabric
- Recycled vintage fabric
- A button
- A “Bobbin” of thread
- A needle
I will also be running a workshop next weekend for The Manchester Weekender in which you can purchase for £10, coffee (or tea), a slice of cake and a craft pack from the Musuem and also join in with a “mass stitch in” led by myself.
I hope to see you there!
