Textile Gardens
In Term 3, I was delighted to have the opportunity to guide our students as they designed and made their very own ‘Textile Gardens’. The inspiration for these came from my recent encounter with works by renowned Textile Artist, Owen Davies, former Head of Education, at the Royal School of Needlework at Hampton Court Palace in England.
The girls demonstrated a high level of creativity when coming up with their designs, incorporating some delightful winding pathways, flower beds and lawns, trees, bird baths, garden swings, water features and fountains, gates and even lamp-posts!
I would like to congratulate all the following girls on this wonderful achievement and hope that it will inspire them to continue to develop their skills in the textile arts. I would also like to thank Mrs Stalker-Booth for her wonderful support of the girls throughout the term.
