I delivered all the entries for the Threads of Connection exhibition to Square Edge Community Arts gallery in Palmerston North this morning. It was such a lovely day I went for a walk along George Street and spied two windows with embroidery displays. Forget Me Not Flowers has work by Maree Burnand (Maree Burnnand) while across the road Bruce McKenzie Booksellers has a wonderful display of embroidery books with work by Jo Dixey (Jo Dixey). Well worth a look-see👀. The Threads of Connection exhibition opens this Saturday and will be on for all of July.
