FULL CIRCLE

this is an inviation for you

you can be part of it no matter which corner of the world you live in

as part of Ashburton Baptist Church's 

'Playful Market' 
on Saturday 28th July 

... we'd like to invite you to be part of a very exciting 

creative project ... FULL CIRCLE

for people of all ages, any skill level 

any medium

it just needs to interpret the theme 'Full Circle'

it needs to be a circle of some sort & I need to be able to hang it easily

(it could be in an embroidery hoop as suggested but you could use anything that is a circle)

 entry forms are ready to go
available from: abcplayfulmarket@gmail.com
and be sure to include a stamped

self addressed envelope so we can return your art work
or you may decide that you'd like to donate your work for sale
you may enter "FULL CIRCLE" as many times as you'd like
open for all ages ... in fact we a strongly encouraging you to involve children & teenagers!!
Please don't hesitate to ask about this adventure

i have dreamt up this idea & would really really love to be

overwhelmed with entries

... so come on & join in 

... & perhaps please

blog about it 

for me to help spread the word that all are invited!!

you may remember back at Easter time

we went on a mission trip to Ambon, Indonesia??

well ... one of the causes that we are fundraising for is

Lawamena Inc ... a foundation now close to my heart...

i hope you feel moved to make something & contribute

and even more if geography does not prevent you

please come along & see ... the main viewing day will be the 28th July

but the whole exhibit will be on show 

in the Wellspring Gallery between the 21st July to the 5th August

just google "embroidery hoop wall art"

& you will find a whole world of inspiration!

whilst at SIT this past weekend

i made a start on one of the pieces that I will be entering myself

i took a drawing that Oscar has done of his version of

'circles' where he tracks back on the line

i love the way he does this & have wanted for ages to turn it into something 

.... cloth is a natural linen, teal coloured pearle thread

with simple little back stitching ...

i will show you the finished product soon

so this is my creative space ... 

... planning & dreaming up 'Full Circle'

hoping that there will be many many participants

& enjoying the simplicity of line ...
