We are sending three pieces each to the Macmillan Art Show at Bonhams in Edinburgh later in September. The charity hopes to raise money for cancer research and care and is usually well attended with over 200 paintings from a wide variety of artists.

Following on from that Midge has an exhibition of textile works at the Heritage Centre on Lismore from 1st. to 31st. October. The exhibition is titled ‘Fairy Dogs’ or ‘Cu sith’ inspired by Gaelic mythology and superstition. It coincides with a Book Week at the Centre. There will be 13 framed textile works.

Midge has managed to arrange that the ‘Appin Stitchers’ will work one of the panels for the Great Scottish Tapestry. The stitching will be done as a winter community project and depicts the Battle of Ypres and the Building of HMS Hood.
