Jan visited Ghana in 2007 and had the trip of a lifetime (she can’t wait to return!). This talk follows her visits to the Adinkra printing villages and the Kente cloth region. Jan had a go at both the weaving and the printing and tells an interesting and fascinating story of her adventures.  She will also bring textiles that she bought in Ghana for all to see.

   Jan explores the many interesting and exciting ways that basic bobbin lace can be used by textile artists.  No experience of Bobbin Lace required! This is a new approach which offers a 21st Century exploration. Forget little white doilies……….. prepare to be inspired.
