It took three of us, an hour yesterday morning to take down the exhibition at Jobling-Gowlers and pack it all up. Not that we didn't have many pieces to pack but it was more attributable to the system we use in Cheshire Textiles! The wall pieces go into bubble wrap packaging or simple cotton bags and then into more substantial padded bags which all must be labelled with the artists name and name of the piece. It is a bit nit picky but it is a system that works and it avoids being left with a tiny bit of bubble wrap far too small for the last bit of wrapping. Our packaging is always greatly admired, wonder if it could be part of an exhibition one day!!
It has been a lovely exhibition in Macclesfield and as mentioned before it has received some fabulous coments which is always a boost. We even had some sales!! Replacing us is Jobling-Gowlers open competition 'Plains and Peaks' which begins next Friday at the start of Barnaby, Macclesfield's festival.
Next stop is Buxton Museum and Art Gallery 'Mark in Stitch' which begins 10th September and runs until 12th November. We are producing some new work, watch this space and I will keep you updated with our progress. Jen
