Roots Moving On

Our Running Stitch exhibition came down this week. Thank you to all those who came to view and left some lovely comments. After a quick change of fixings (mirror plate to D rings) the pieces will be going off to Heartlands Hospital for a few weeks, then Good Hope Hospital and finally ending up back in Solihull at Solihull Hospital, sometime early next year.
As I won't be seeing my pictures for a while, I  made sure I took some photos.

 The Portrait

As these were very personal pieces of work, most incorporating family photos, they were not for sale. The black and white embroidered pieces included fabric copies of photos taken by my father so are particularly important to me and I will not be parting with those.
