So, our next project to be worked is "on a roll".
We will be painting, dyeing, printing, embellishing and sewing a metre or two of narrow fabric which will roll around a wooden cotton reel. Ruth is modelling one she made earlier for Wightwick Manor exhibition based on 1918
Lorraine's example of using a pearl button and a strap to secure the end of the roll when finished
Jay is working on her roll by using "friendship" and Fred her dog as the source

Lorraine at the end of the day... Looking beautiful Lorraine
We can now begin our spool project by choosing any topic, in any colour scheme, bearing in mind the fabulous work that has gone on in the last year for design and the use of colour.
