As part of the publicity campaign to promote the event we have been asked for one or two sentences about each member. Plus one photo.
This is quite difficult!
These are the words supplied by each member - interesting to see how we describe our different inspirations and way of working.
Sarah Boardman
Sarah uses art to connect her with herself and life. Through
the mediums of hand embroidery, printmaking and applique Sarah uses bold colour
and shape to explore the world around her.

Caroline Brown
Caroline is inspired by her collection of vintage fabrics
bringing them to a new life, in the form of images that evoke memories and an
appreciation of traditional materials.
Jenny Butcher
Research is an integral part of Jenny’s artistic practice as
she continues to explore the impact of adoption on birth mothers and their
children during the 1950s and 1960s.

Heather Evans
Heather has been developing her textile art after completing
a creative textile course. She enjoys experimenting with materials and colours
to develop her own personal style.
@heatherevanstextileart
Penny Evans
Penny is an award-winning fibre artist who loves experimenting with wet felt, for its textural and structural properties. Her work ranges from the delicate and fragile where paper is incorporated with a fine layer of wool, to structural felt pieces whose strength is derived from the wool itself.

Jenny Lam
Much of Jenny's work is in 3D and has focussed on the
natural world and the unseen life force within it. Her pieces are organic
and suggestive of roots, branches, blood vessels, bronchioles - channels
through which life giving elements flow.

Mary McIntosh
Reading and research is always the start of new work for
Mary. Looking for a story to tell through textile art. The choice of materials
is also key to convey meaning and message.

the Norfolk and Suffolk coastline. She also specialises in shibori using woad
and indigo.

Frances Overy

of time spent when travelling.
Rather than photographic images, words and recollections are her inspiration.
