BOSTON - THE STORY IN STITCH
Back in 2019 we had the idea of creating a series of work displaying lots of good and positive things that have happened, and are happening, in the town. Boston Big Local offered us some funding, and suggested it would be marvellous if we could include the community in the making of the pieces of work. So we came up with the idea of putting together some kits and asking as many people, of all ages, to stitch us a two inch square. We have used these squares to decorate and embellish the work, which takes the form of large story books, hence the title.
We have finished the first four books, '2020' , 'BUILD', 'GROW'and 'PLAY' and the last two are in development at the moment.
These are entitled 'LISTEN' and 'CREATE', and will be finished sometime next year.
We welcome suggestions for venues whereby we can display the books and meet the public to explain the concept and the work behind the project. Please contact us to discuss any possibilities and dates.
