In conjunction with SSAFA, the Embroiderers' Guild is proud to be part of the commemoration of all those who took part in World War 1. Those who fought are now fading memories to the generation who came after, and soon they too will be lost to us.
Glossop members have interpreted their own memories of remembered family members, or aspects of the war about which they feel strongly, in cloth and thread. Their work is to be included in a unique exhibition of hearts to be held in Liverpool Church of England Cathedral from Monday, 10 September until Sunday, 7 October.
At our July meeting we were able to admire the beautiful and thoughtful work which has been completed and submitted for inclusion in the exhibition:-
Hearts from different regions of the Guild will form a total of thirteen exhibitions. Dates and venues can all be found on the Guild website:-
