| 'Bird's Nest' Machine Stitched Bird's Nest Construction by Susan Syddall |
It is ages since I last posted anything… Been busy creating but will try to post more regularly.
The last few months I have been working on a couple of projects for exhibitions one of which is for an exhibition in conjunction with four other artists and a photography. We are each approaching the subject of allotments in our own different ways.
I have been visiting local allotments, taking photographs, speaking to allotment holders and will be holding workshops on site with my fellow collaborator Jennifer Whittle from Breightmet Longarm Quilting Studio. We are proposing to create an art quilt for the main exhibition which will be held next year.
I became inspired by a birds nest found in an old greenhouse and have become obsessed by creating them on paper with machine stitch.

We will be exhibiting some of our work at the Southport Flower Show who have an area promoting Allotments.
