A photo from Monday morning as I was off to spend the day with my granddaughter....
....I have been weaving on some of my limpet shells this week as I want to make a picture...
....Friday my sister and I walked from Waterloo Station along the South Bank, quite blowy...
....these are dining pods which can be hired overlooking the river, they were all occupied when we walked back, such a great idea!
The fabulous sky line ahead of us as we walked along...
....old and new buildings side by side...
We went into the Tate and I went to see this exhibition, it was so interesting I was inspired to do some weaving when I got home....
...she was an artist before her time using various threads and amazing designs in her work, well worth seeing for anybody interested in weaving and fabric.
This is one of many large wall hangings...
....this was a smaller framed piece using metallic thread to define the cross...
.....really interesting jewellery, using ribbon and plastic rings...
....a bead string and hair grips...
...pearl beads and loop hooks in 2 sizes on a leather string...
....metal washers and crossgrain ribbon, think I will have to give this a try!
....woven room dividers...
...close up....
....close up....
....a wonderful treat!!
Thawing ice blocks were outside the Tate...
...a jolly street entertainer playing Christmas songs...
....and lunch, the best fish and chips at Borough Market!!!
A great day out and about 14000 steps, home a quick cup of coffee then out to our community carol service which was BRILLIANT followed by wine and mince pies.
I wish you all a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS x
