I’m delighted to share that Breaking Bread is part of Feast – the Embroiderers’ Guild 2025/6 Members Challenge.
There’s something fitting about a piece called Breaking Bread sitting alongside other makers’ responses to the idea of feast. Food, and the rituals around it, carry so much of what we mean by home, gathering and sharing – it’s also the kind of ordinary everyday moments that I keep returning to in my work.
The Guild set a theme open to interpretation – food and celebration, a “feast for the eyes,” or something closer to indulgence and excess. All the submitted artworks feature in a Guild digital flip book, alongside the makers’ own descriptions and notes – it’s well worth a browse.
The pieces will also be on show at the Embroiderers’ Guild stand at the Knit and Stitch shows in London and Harrogate later this autumn, so there’ll be a chance to see them in person too.
