SUMMARY:Toni Buckby - Zoom Talk - History of Blackwork
DESCRIPTION:Blackwork embroidery\, with its striking black silk thread on white linen\, was one of the most fashionable techniques of the 16th and early 17th centuries. Found on intimate garments and household textiles\, it shifted in style and method over the hundred years of its popularity. Today\, only a handful of fragile examples survive. Those that remain are in various stages of disintegration\, due to the iron-based fixatives once used in black dye. Because of this\, portraits from the period provide some of the richest records of Blackwork embroidery in use. This talk will trace the stylistic development and application of blackwork through these surviving examples and portrait evidence. \n \nAbout Toni \nToni Buckby is a Sheffield-based artist working with traditional textile techniques\, experimental digital technologies\, and collaborative making. Her practice explores the value of labour\, the visibility of authorship\, and how practical knowledge is created and shared. \nSpecialising in fine hand embroidery\, Toni is currently undertaking a PhD with Sheffield Hallam University and the Victoria & Albert Museum. Her research uses contemporary art practice to investigate\, reconstruct\, and interpret fragile and little-seen examples of historic Blackwork embroidery. \nWebsite: https://tonibuckby.com \nhttps://blackworkembroidery.org \nThe talk is free to members of Textile Explorers

SUMMARY:Jane Fairweather - Talk - "It’s never too late but don’t give up your day job!”

DESCRIPTION:Textured embroidery\, using fabric manipulation and some basic embroidery stitches. Create a textured piece of embroidery which can be displayed in a small embroidery hoop. The piece will look at texture\, playing with simple fabric manipulation &amp; some basic embroidery stitches within a limited colour range; this technique can then be explored to create various pieces. \nMaterials needed: \nBasic sewing kit (needles\, scissors etc.) You will also need a base/background fabric; to fit your *hoop\, a neutral shade is best in medium weight calico or similar. \n*An embroidery hoop at a size of around 4-6 inches \nOther materials \nI can supply a pack of rust dyed fabric and lace\, etc. if you would like to use this colour palette at a cost of £20 – to be pre ordered. \nAlternatively\, you may wish to use your own fabrics\, in your preferred colour range. \nYou will need a selection of embroidery threads in your chosen colour. \n \nYou can of course use any special fabrics\, button\, beads etc. that you would like to incorporate. \nAbout Deb \nDeb Cooper is a Mixed Media Textile Artist based in the North East of England. Using natural dyes\, ink\, mark-making\, and stitch\, she combines small sections of recycled fibres\, old papers\, and vintage textiles\, including deconstructed lace. Sometimes\, machine embroidery is added to the mix\, but the key element is hand stitch\, which Deb uses to unite the layers. Deb has a love of aged and worn materials. The gentle colours and calm tones draw you in to view each piece more closely. \nWebsite: www.debcoopertextileart.com

SUMMARY:Janice Bottrill - Zoom Talk - 'Slow\, Quiet Work'
DESCRIPTION:An introductory talk by Janice – sharing her work and approach to teaching. \n  \nAbout Janice \nJanice Botterill is an artist\, writer and tutor. She uses the techniques and processes of traditional embroidery and darning to make drawings\, collages and quilts. Working towards a zero-waste practice\, she works with pre-loved\, repurposed or natural fabrics and threads. She prefers the slower\, quieter practice of hand stitching\, focusing on just a handful of signature stitches in her work. \nShe is very interested in the crossover between textiles and other creative practices and in particular how contemporary artists\, collectors and galleries are blurring the traditional barriers between stitching and embroidery (often seen as domestic and craft techniques) and fine art practices such as sculpture\, painting and installation. \nShe often combines her stitched work with writing and printmaking and is relearning how to use a vintage treadle sewing machine to expand her practice. She is a member of several South West UK textile groups and shares her enthusiasm and knowledge of embroidery and hand stitching through teaching and facilitating workshops. You can find her work and words on Instagram and Substack – just search for slowquietwork \nInstagram account – https://www.instagram.com/slowquietwork/ \nThe talk is free to members of Textile Explorers

SUMMARY:Anne Brooke - Talk - #4theloveofstitch  an obsession and an accident
DESCRIPTION:Join me for an intimate\, behind-the-scenes look at my evolution as a textile artist. In this talk\, I’ll share the stories\, inspirations\, and exact processes that bring my stitched collages to life—from the first spark of an idea to the final\, intricate layers. \nWe will dive deep into my pivotal shift in direction from 2021 to the present day\, exploring the birth of #sew4thesoul and how a deep passion for textile art transformed into a beautiful\, lifelong obsession with the craft. Whether you are a fellow maker or an art lover\, get ready for an honest of my wandersing and ponderings. \nAbout Anne \nMy creative practice is all about connections\, journeys\, and memories that are anchored down in layers of paint and deliberate hand-stitching. \nI love how the quiet rhythm of the stitch can bridge gaps\, bind fabric or paper together\, and hold onto precious memories. For me\, every piece tells a story—it almost feels as if a small part of your soul becomes woven right into the work. \nhttps://www.annebrooke.co.uk/

SUMMARY:Anne Brooke - Workshop - Hoop Hoop to Stitch
DESCRIPTION:A New Dimension in Textile Backgrounds \nReady to take your stitching to the next level—literally? Whether you are looking for a sequel to our Painted & Stitched session or you want a fresh\, experimental starting point for a brand-new project\, this workshop is all about structural depth. \nBy working with a double hoop setup\, we move away from flat surfaces and begin building a layered\, sculptural environment ready for your needle. \nBrief overview of the day. In the morning we look at the construction and assembly of our hoop in a hoop and begin to explore a range of painting and mark making techniques to address the issue of scary white fabric. In the afternoon we will continue to develop the background and begin to explore a range of stitching. Depending on how quick you stitch\, it is unlikely you will complete your piece on the day. But Anne will go through everything you need to know in the afternoon. \nMaterials – \nMust haves \n● Apron and gloves if you don’t want to get paint/inks on your hands (will wash off) ● Table cover (bin bag is ok) ● Hair Dryer (to dry piece as we go along) ● White cotton fabric 60CM X 60CM(not too thick) and pieces approx 20cm x 10cm (for sampling) ● 2 x embroidery hoop – 12 inch quilter hoop(this is deeper than an embroidery hoop) and 6 inch embroidery hoop. YOU ARE ABLE TO ORDER THESE FROM ANNE BEFORE THE WORKSHOP. Cost for both hoops £19\, payment for these are due when ordered. Details about how to order will be available early next year. \nWater pot\, palette and selection of brushes (household / artist etc) ● Any art materials you like using e.g. water colours\, inks\, inktense pencils/blocks (I don’t use acrylic) fabric paints or anything else you want to try out ● Test pot of emulsion\, I use white/pale grey but feel free to bring any others you have at home. ● Hand sewing kit. ● Any threads you may want to use\, I use machine thread and embroidery thread.(think of a colourway to work in on the day) ● Any buttons\, beads and embellishments you may want to add to your piece. \nAnne will have ● A selection of sample pieces for inspiration ● A range of brushes and hand made tools to try out ● Kitchen roll ● A hair dryer ● A range of art materials to use ● Tester pots of emulsion ● Threads ● A selection of embellishments ( to purchase on the day) ● Plus anything else I can think of. \nImportant Notice: Copyright & Intellectual Property We love sharing creativity\, but please note that all workshop materials\, handouts\, designs\, and unique techniques taught during the session are the intellectual property of Anne. ● Workshop Content: The project designs\, imagery\, and structural steps provided by Anne are for personal use only and may not be resold\, taught\, or redistributed commercially. ● Photography & Display: You are more than welcome to take photos of Anne’s samples and work for your own personal record an of course of your own progress and finished pieces!

SUMMARY:Sue Lawty - Zoom Talk - Textile Travels in India & Bhutan
DESCRIPTION:A vibrantly illustrated talk visiting two regions of textile excellence. Locked in the foothills of the mighty Himalaya\, The Buddhist Kingdom of Bhutan is a nation of stunning landscapes\, colourful festivals and an enduring tradition of handwoven\, highly patterned textiles. In India we visit ancient desert villages and wonderful families to explore weaving\, bandhani dyeing\, printing\, embroidery and more. Both are extremely exciting and stimulating countries to travel through. \nAbout Sue \nSue Lawty is a highly experienced artist\, designer and teacher. She constructs textiles using raphia\, hemp and lead\, and makes drawings and assemblages using tiny stones\, creating a kind of pixelated cloth. \nIn 2014 Lawty held a prestigious Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship in Washington DC and New York.  She has been Artist in Residence at the School of Earth & Environment\, the University of Leeds and in 2023/24 held a three-month IASPIS International Artist Residency in Stockholm\, Sweden. \nSue Lawty is also a keen fell runner and an accomplished trekker\, leading both hard mountain treks and specialist textile trips to Bhutan\, India\, Nepal and Central Asia. The book ‘Earth Materials’ was published in 2017 about her work. \nSocial Media Link: Instagram @suelawty@lawty.landscape \n

SUMMARY:Alice Fox - Talk -  Allotment Materials
DESCRIPTION:Alice will tell us about the various plant fibres she works with\, which are sourced from her allotment. Describing the stages from seed or seedling\, through to harvest\, processing and storage\, Alice will take us on a seasonal journey with various fibres\, including cultivated and wild plants. She will show examples of how those fibres are then used in the surfaces and structures she creates for gallery exhibition. \nAbout Alice \nMy process-led practice is based on personal engagement with landscape and has sustainability at its heart. I am fascinated by the detail of organic things and my work celebrates and carries an essence of what I experience in the natural world. My background in physical geography and nature conservation underpins my artistic practice. \nI work with natural fibres and gathered materials\, employing natural dyes\, stitch\, weave and soft basketry techniques. These elements come together in different combinations to create grouped surfaces and structures. Found items form the focus of my response to a landscape\, forming tangible links to the places they were gathered from. I take an experimental approach to these found objects: by engaging with the materials that I find\, manipulating them and experimenting\, I learn about their properties\, boundaries and possibilities. This exploration becomes a collaboration between object and artist. My allotment plot forms the focus of my work\, providing an abundant source of materials. Read more about Plot 105 in Projects. \nI studied Contemporary Surface Design & Textiles at Bradford School of Arts & Media and completed an MA in Creative Practice at Leeds Arts University. I work from the allotment and my studio in Saltaire\, West Yorkshire\, UK. I exhibit\, lecture and teach workshops nationally and internationally. I am a member of the Textile Study Group. \nWebsite: https://alicefox.co.uk/ \nThe talk is free to members of Textile Explorers

SUMMARY:Rachel Davies - Talk -  “How Textiles Tell Stories”
DESCRIPTION:Textiles and clothing are representative of the economy\, society\, and each of us personally. \nI will discuss my textile background\,16 years as a textile lecturer\, love of embroidery and embellishment and how I use it as a vehicle to tell personal stories and highlight issues of sustainability. \nI will bring a series of garments\, accompanying sketchbooks and artwork to explain my techniques and explorations and how upcycling\, visible mending  and sustainability are now at the forefront of my work. \nAbout Rachel \n\n\n\nI trained as fashion and textile designer at Loughborough. This was followed by some years in the textile industry designing for store groups in the Midlands. I moved to Cheshire in 1991 and started my own business painting murals and designing greetings cards. \nIn 2006 I trained as a textile lecturer and worked in Further Education for 16 years. \nIn 202I   I left F.E and set up independently utilizing stitch with community groups around Cheshire\, teaching sustainable textile workshops\, mending workshops\, giving talks and creating conceptual garments. \nI have exhibited at the Grosvenor Museum\, Chester Cathedral\, Castle Park Frodsham\, Willow Gallery Oswestry\, Editions\, Liverpool and had multiple solo exhibitions. \nIn 2021 I was asked to become resident artist for Tarporley and since then have facilitated a number of art projects for the  village. \n \nWebsite: http://www.racheldaviesstudio.co.uk \nThe talk is free to members of Textile Explorers
