A new community arts project for 2019 entitled 52 Stitched Stories will be launched next month for interested participants.
The event will be held on Friday December 7, between 11am and 2pm, at Coast in Whiting Bay, and will introduce visitors to the concept and provide information about the project which is also being undertaken in West Kilbride.
The ambition is for everyone involved to create a textile postcard once a week for an entire year. Any textile medium can be used and the word ‘stitch’ can be widely interpreted. The resulting 52 postcards will reflect an individual’s personal narratives throughout the year and can draw inspiration from anywhere and anything: changing seasons, life events, emotions, activities or simply just a colour.
