We are delighted to welcome Pat Archibald back to The Silver Thimble, Pat has considerable experience both as a Textile artist and as a Teacher.

The workshop offered here at the Silver Thimble is Celtic Connections. Experiment with foiling onto fabric to produce a small piece with a contempory twist. She will also tell us the story behind some of her Celtic pieces and the origins of the Celtic Design.

In her own words –
“Quiltmaking and teaching are passions of mine. My love of fabric started at an early age and having been co-owner of the shop, 'Purely Patchwork' in Scotland for ten years I have been able to share my love for fabrics and quilting with quiltmakers from all over the world.

My travels are a constant source of inspiration to me and probably my best known works to date relate to my Kilimanjaro climb. However, recent work has been about locations closer to home - the Highlands and Islands of Scotland - but adventures in Australia and New Zealand in 2003 are proving to be very inspirational!”  

 

Pat has promised to bring a plentiful supply of her kits.
