This vibrant display in the lovely upper gallery is a celebration of both design and skill, introducing a variety of weaving that ranges from delicate braid to colourful rug.
Textile Artist Jennie Parry opened the Exhibition with a demonstration of the Japanese art of takadai, the creation of intricate and decorative braiding on a fearsome looking piece of equipment.
