What can I say? I knew Marion was studying ethnic patterns, but look at this.
This is gorgeous, finely cut sparkly organza, such colors. All three cards have had beautiful tiny stitches.
I am spellbound. Thank you so much.
Last night I went on a studio visit over to Plockton, about a 40 minute drive on the mainland, with a friend from the Sleat peninsular, Patricia Shone a ceramicist. It was organised by a new group called Aos (said ooze, meaning a collective, I think, in Gaelic) formed when the Art Certre in Portree closed down. They arrange visits, talks & workshops & send regular info about what's happening here & away. Vital when you're living on a faraway island. The Treeroot Studio is owned by Jane Inglis, showing her jewellery & mixed media pieces, her mother Barbara's textile pieces,Patricias pots & another member of the group's work, Emma Noble, a printmaker. All of it really beautiful work.
On the way home the view just before the house looked pretty great, so I took a shot - you can just about see the narrow rainbow in the passing shower.
