Final show Hartlepool Gallery Church Square

Thursday was preview night for our displays of selected designs from our FMP.  My design area  is card and gift. So, although I have embellishment/embroidery (like the fashion designs) and repeats (like interiors) due to the scale differences and use of product boards to show my designs, my area looked very different to all the other displays


I was, therefore VERY worried that it would not be liked and so wished I had opted out of this non-compulsory part of the degree, However, my sister and Mother, a lovely lady called Anrea who spoke to me at the end of the preview evening and all the lovely people (especially the lady from Texas) who came and talked to me when I was 'on duty' at the gallery today made me glad I hadn't chickened out!!!! THANK YOU  so much for making me feel so much better about my work and saying such lovely things. SO  MUCH APPRECIATED.

  1. You really should have more confidence in yourself and your work. You are very talented and your work at the degree show is proof of that. Keep in touch.
