Description
Roy Dickinson a “Man in a Woman’s World”
In 2010 Roy was the only man in the UK to have successfully completed City and Guilds Parts 1&2,
He is well known for his award winning quilts and in this video you get to enjoy several pieces of his work , including the double sided Venetian. Roy likes to work on projects that tell a story and is instersted in using light and shade, and as you will see isn’t afraid of including embellishment in his work. Roy’s quilt “Infinity and Beyond” won in Art and Embellishment categories at the National Patchwork Champsionships at Sandown in 2010
Pat Deacon – Embroiderer,quilter and teacher
Pat is another City & Guilds graduate and here we get to enjoy quilts in a series entitled ‘Discovering the Rainbow’.
Pat began her quilting career with traditional piecing and machine quilting, however, she very quickly began exploring different techniques and pushing the boundaries. Pat had always been a ‘doodler’ and with a background in mathematics she began exploring abstract shapes and in particular circles and curves and you will see that it is the combination of these abstract geometric shapes and bold colours that now characterize her work.
We visited this show back in March 2010.
