November 2009 - Thursday Nov. 26 to Saturday Dec 19, 2009

After a successful 2008 exhibition we are pleased to host Rory, Marilyn and Marilyn again this year.

Rory Meyer

Rory is a spinner, weaver and silk painter whose focus is scarves and wraps in fine wool and silk. Weaving using fine wools and silk with endless combinations of pattern and colour enable the production of quality one of a kind designs.

The delicate fabrics with natural sheen and transparency are enhanced by the use of silk dyes.

Marilyn Nicholls

Marilyn is a long time spinner, knitter and felter who is well known for producing fabulous one off garments.  Marilyn has won many competitions from the Hunter Valley to Melbourne. Her Nuno felted garments using Alpaca, Silk and Silk Organza and also Silk Velvet are soft and delicate. Marilyn is now producing wall hangings and framed pieces using stitching onto Alpaca felt.

 Marilyn Dear

Marilyn began working in textiles about 10 years ago. Using a variety of fabrics and techniques she has created many unique handbags sometimes recycling "loved" pieces of material from velvet curtains to old kimonos and decorating the surface with treasured scraps of laces and braids.
