‘Contemporary twist’ on Dales textiles heritage
Bainbridge, 31 May 2022
Artists from Harrogate have picked up the threads of the rich textiles heritage of the Dales to stage a special exhibition at the [Dales Countryside Museum](https://www.dalescountrysidemuseum.org.uk/https:/www.dalescountrysidemuseum.org.uk/) in Hawes.
Known as The Small Group, eight artists are showing their vibrant works in ‘Dales, Land and Sky – Contemporary Textiles’.
Lapwing, a hand embroidered bird applied to a background of hand dyed fabrics by Irene Earl, and Limestone Pavement with Lone Tree by Jacquelyn Estell are two of the artworks on display (see pictures).
The special exhibition is designed to complement the museum’s permanent textiles gallery, which displays ancient knitting sheaths, rag rugs and quilts. The artists have used the same techniques as can be seen in the permanent collection, but with a contemporary twist.
