Textile connections

Felted shawl by lady in Murwillumbar

One of the advantages of being connected online is we can share good links with each other and also share that with others who connect with us.

Marina and Peter have been to Murwillumbah and said it was a great place for textile arts and crafts. They met a woman whose friend had handfelted the shawl featured. Some of the spinners and weavers belong to the Tweed Unlimited Arts Inc which really encourages textile arts and crafts in the region. As it turns out, Marjorie has just come back from Tweed Heads.

Anne was spinning some lovely coloured fleece on Monday. It was also beautifully soft. She had learned about rarenaturalfibres from Alexis who have both a Facebook page and a website and are well worth a look.

Wendy sent through a link form Gone Rustic Studio +Gallery in Tasmania . They have a Facebook page and a really nice website.

We need all this arty and textile goodness to keep us inspired. It’s good to have something new and different to look at and then know we can connect across this vast countryย  and world of ours.
