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.
this and the next done by the younger members of the groups displaying
and this next piece by members of the Alnwick Guild reflecting their fishing history
And here - for no good reason - Holly wearing the clapotis I made last year from knitty
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.



i watched the video and kept waiting for the man to turn into a woman, lol.
i love the dog item.
and the clapotis! i can only dream of such mastery.

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. ;)
