    Posted on April 7th, 2009 Sarah Lawrence No comments

    Just had the information about the exhibition at Macclesfield museum. It is a viewing of the embroidery collection of Diana Springall. It starts from April 11th and runs to the July 4th. There are over 50 British embroiderers represented, including me! :)

    There is a book called An Embroiderer’s Eye, which is £8.95 with £2 P&P from the museum. The address of which is The Macclesfield Museums Trust, Park Lane, Macclesfield, Cheshire, SK11 6TJ. To quote from the information I have received…
    “Over 50 works are illustrated in colour from Dianna Springall’s unrivaled collection of contemporary embroidery. A brief text describes each work and provides biographical information about the artist.”

    I can’t tell you the pleasure that I got when Diana initially chose to collect my work and the immense privilege it is to have it displayed in the exhibition.
