Big textile event

Stroud International Textiles has been an annual event for some years. This year the 52-page brochure is online - here's a sample page from the section on the "Pairings" exhibition, not coincidentally showing the page with the work of one of my favourite ceramicists, Claire Curneen -

Other makers involved in the main exhibition - which runs till 27 May - are David Gates, Jane Webb & Alice Kettle; Sharon Blakey & Ismini Samanidou; Shelly Goldsmith & Annie Shaw; Janet Haigh & Rachel Kelly; Jane McKeating &Jilly Morris;  Dawn Mason &Nigel Hurlstone; Kate Egan & Vanessa Cutler; Rhian Solomon; Fiona Haynes.

One of the collaborations has been blogged by Jilly Morris here.
