The North West Region Travelling Book.

A challenge was set by the  previous Chair Person of the North West Region of the Embroiderers Guild, for each branch to produce a double spread in an A3 sketchbook to represent their area.
The left hand page would show the inspiration for the work with the textile piece on the other. 
This is the cover of our North West Regional Travelling Book. Its is quite large  and full now and can be borrowed by each branch to enable their members to see the work of other groups.

Here are some of the pages that I snapped at the last Regional AGM.

Bolton 

Chelford

              Cheshire Borders and Chester 

Cumberland 

Glossop and District

Macclesfield

Not all branches put their name on the pages so I am assuming that these pages depicting Morecambe Bay are from the Lancaster Branch.

Lancaster

This pages showing Gawthorpe Hall near Padiham must be from the Pendle Branch.

Pendle

Preston

Rochdale

Warrington

I hope that you have enjoyed seeing these pages. Quite a bit of thought and much work went into making them. If you would like to see the pages close up and read the information on them, ask your Programme Secretary to organise a visit from 'The Book' or go to a Regional Day or Regional AGM to see it in person.
