The Journal Cover Competition

Each year the NW Region of the Embroiderers Guild produces a 'Journal' that has a small paragraph/mini report of the activities of each Branch in the region which is often accompanied with photos of members/projects.
This year a competition was held to pick an embroidered piece for the photo on the front cover.
Here is a piece stitched by one of our own members of  the Lytham St Annes Branch.

Visitors to Lytham who have ever walked the full length of the prom toward Fairhaven Lake should recognise this delightful Summer House so accurately depicted below. 

The colours are much brighter in reality but the flash version did not show all the detailed stitching which has gone into this lovely piece.

The Winning Piece was an unusual Grey Giraffe, so look out for it on the cover of next years Journal that should be out in April 2018 in time for Regional Day.
