A Stitch in Time: function and form, Shire Hall, Monmouth

After visiting the opening of the 'A Stitch in Time'   exhibition in Shire Hall, Monmouth last Friday, I thought I'd share some pictures of the show with you. Its a really wonderful exhibition, beautifully curated, and an intriguing mix of work. I particularly loved the juxtapositioning of historic textiles with the contemporary works. Please do visit the exhibition if you're nearby - its on until the 18th March.
