All Threaded Together

All Threaded Together is a group of ten textile and mixed media artists.  We originally met at The Bramblepatch in Kislingbury on courses run by Brenda Boardman.  After her retirement from teaching we continued to meet to share our knowledge and support each other, as well as showing work at The Bramblepatch and Compton Verney.

In January 2015 we moved to larger premises in Kislingbury and called ourselves Threaded Together, but on discovering that there was another exhibiting group by that name, changed ours to All Threaded Together.


The new venue was ideal for showing work so we decided to have another exhibition!  There was no particular theme to the show as a whole except that we were to make one work 12" x  12" mounted on a canvas.  It had to incorporate as much or as little of a batik fabric as the maker chose and the piece could be interpreted freely.  ​This is the fabric we agreed to use for these pieces

Our inaugural exhibition on 30 April 2016 was held in Kislingbury Village Hall and the space was large enough to share with two other textile groups, Weedon Bec Contemporary Quilt Group and Layered.

It was a fine spring day and there were over 70 visitors, tempted by beautiful textiles, books, cards and ceramics.  Tea, coffee and cake may also have played a part!  Here are some of the visitors clearly enjoying themselves:


And a selection of some of our work:
And now we are all working towards our next exhibition, which will probably be held in 2018.
