Embroidery at the Queens Hall

The Queens Hall is our little local art centre and library and cafe and theatre currently hosting an embroidery exhibition. I'm not a big fan of very precise ordered work, though I appreciate the skill and effort, but here are the things I liked.

Noro silk garden - more balls than I was expecting!

And finally - forgive me if you have see this one already, but my friend Mary sent me this link - make it smaller in size- it loses quality if you enlarge it and gasp in amazement like I did.

amazing video

Goodness mother you're lovely! Thanks for the train ticket- I'll ask em her aunties address.

thanks for stopping by, to answer your question, jerky is like a dried salted meat product. there's a kind for people, but in the video it's a dog treat. and this sounds utterly bizarre, i realize. ;)

How do they do it? Love the Clapotis and embroideries.

Love the embroideries and the clapotis. Great video clip.
