Near to Nature’ mini quilt Exhibition and Sale

. In March 2019 the Near to Nature mini quilt competition was launched locally to raise money for the RSPB. The challenge was to make a mini quilt measuring 9 x 11 inches, featuring an RSPB pin badge. Over 600 entries were received from all over the UK and even from overseas, including as far away as Australia! Unique and imaginative designs were produced based on the pin badge entrants were given. This exhibition, open daily, comprises of nearly two hundred of these amazing pieces of artwork. Every quilt tells a story, while collectively they showcase the talents of so many creative individuals and highlight the array of stunning wildlife the UK has to offer. A 'Near to Nature' Book containing images of the wonderful range of styles and techniques used will also be available to buy for £5.00 and each book sale will include a quilt of your choice from those on display.
