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 Ghost Images - Create a background with a curved seam using Lynne Edward's new Wavy Border Ruler and then learn in easy stages how to create translucent images using layers of sheers and nets. We will also discuss how to do more complicated 'ghosts'.
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.
