Carpets

Both carpets have now turned and have been installed.

Here is the silk one - note the swags of red and white flowers.

And here is the wool one which is larger, heavier and a darker blue. But note the sprays of red and white flowers !! I must like this design!

Last night I attended a private view in Henley of the Berkshire guild's exhibition which is on until June 18th at the Old Fire Station Gallery. I met up with lots of Kennet Valley Guild members there and had a good gossip, culminating in supper in a Henleyrestaurant. The exhibition was very varied white weaving, inning and dyeing well represented.

Most of these items are of natural wool.

I thought the black and white tapestry very elegant. By zooming in you out to be able to see the fine detail in the white section.
