About this event
WAFTA members will be introduced to the Collection and the Collection Group, then in small groups go into the Collection room to look behind the scenes at the storage and some special pieces it contains.
There will be a presentation by the Guild’s Conservation and Preservation specialist, displays of stitch done by members of the Embroiderers Guild from the simple to the more complicated, and 4 stitch stations set up for visitors to ‘have a go’ all materials provided.
A bobbin lace and tatting demonstration will be provided by members of the EG Lace Group and during the afternoon tea break the Collection Group will have on view items for sale from old lace, and vintage items through to contemporary, including threads and fabrics.
