At our April meeting Liz explained how a knight led her into stitching when
she retired from teaching ! Then onto the lady who from the look she was giving
Liz explained, was not too impressed with the knight and from there she was
hooked! She had a beautiful display of the different techniques she uses
including black work, white work and pulled thread.
She explained how sending one of her designs to a magazine which was
accepted with requests for more, she has travelled the world teaching stitch and
developed online communities in countries where it is not possible to have
meetings . So from a simple beginning Liz has become an important person in
many peoples lives by creating unique designs for her kits she has found a way
of satisfying people’s basic and human need to create.
We are so proud to have her as one of our members.
