QUILTS & EMBROIDERY

I had a lovely coach trip to Uttoxeter Racecourse today with Kettering Embroiderers Guild.  The embroideries were mostly very good, some fabulous presentation & some that just feel short.  It is such a shame when embroidery is entombed in glass as one of them was fabulous texture, lost behind the glazing.  The patchwork ranged from very basic beginners, some of which was very well executed; to fairly advanced, so nice to see as some of the quilts at the larger quilt shows are so outstanding that it quite puts you off !!! lol
I did like the venue, plenty of space, lots of toilets are a few eating places.  The crowds were not there like Chilford or Malvern & nothing like the NEC, these 3 are sometimes heaving & quite disconcerting. I am just too tired to photograph my goodies today, have some experimental stuff to play with.  Oh goody Lewis is on the Box.  Talking of Lewis, did anyone see the F1 from China - wow what a race.  Well done Lewis Hamilton
