A sad farewell to Daphne Impey

 

Daphne Impey is a founding member of Out of the Fold, the very last of that select group in fact. After 18 years as a valued and much loved member of the group Daphne is sadly leaving us.

Always modest and self-deprecating Daphne has produced an amazing array of work for group exhibitions.

We wanted to mark Daphne's amazing contribution to Out of the Fold and to present her with a gift as a reminder of her stitching friends. 

Current and past members were invited to make a 6" square on the theme of 'Orchard' and these have been made up into a quilted wall-hanging. The piece will be on display at the Textiles East Fair on Sat 10th and Sun 11th February 2024. Can you spot the individual makers?

We wish Daphne and her family all the very best for the future

Textiles East Fair

 

All 12 current members of Out of the Fold will be showing work as part of our exhibition at Textiles East Fair on Sat 10th and Sunday 11th Feb 2024

We will be showing our 'Unfolding' series first seen in the Bury St Edmunds exhibition last year but this series will also have new work on this theme by Phillip Rees, Mary McIntosh and our newest member Beverley Youngman.

The 'Unfolding' fans will be on display - one of the most challenging of our challenges with members showing their creativity and technical skills

We are also exhibiting a range of framed work - new and old - and offering a range of handmade items for sale.
