Saturday 8th January Serendipity, Printing and Sewing - Annie Bowden

We were treated to a very entertaining afternoon with Annie.

She started by showing us some of the colourful quilts she has made, astonishingly all worked by hand.

Also this photo shows a beautiful hand embroidered cap inspired by one at Sunnycroft, which was made for Charles 1st

  

 

         

She then talked about some of the 

different printing plates that she uses including collagraph with card which are shown on the next few photos

  

       

She also uses traditional lino cut plates which when printed she has also interpreted into stitch

  

  

One of Annie' s latest techniques is to dry point etch into photographs and then use these as printing plates

Beautiful work.

We look forward to an exciting workshop.

Thank you Annie
