Hanging the Love Letters to the Land exhibition at Fodder and Farm
-700.jpg)
This week I have been hanging my embroideries in a white washed barn, as part of Forth Vallery Art Beat - an Open Studios trail. The barn is part of Gartur Stitch Farm near Port of Menteith in Scotland - an education led regenerative smallholding which is host to Fodder and Farm, an events company specialising in local food, making and community.
It all brought up a lot about whether I am an artist - self trained, working in textiles and with local materials . . . .
In this video I discuss all that and you can see us making decisions about what art works to put where - and get a close up of the amazing quilt making of Eilidh Weir of All that is Braw.
