Shades of Colour


As part of Margate's Summer of Colour and supported by Arts Council England, Turner Contemporary, Margate Town Team and through a Kickstarter campaign we worked with the community in and around Thanet to create over 30 bright and cheerful giant lampshades using knitting, crafts and printing.  This was a summer long project over a period of 4 months and the shades appeared in and around Margate between August 2014 and January 2015 - extending Summer into the winter months

Summer of Colour Fish for Margate


As a further contribution to the Coat for a Boat project (displayed at Turner Contemporary, Margate) the knitters and stitchers of KnitterKnitKnitKnit created a series of bright and beautiful fish, which found homes around Margate's Old Town.







Follow the Herring


We heard the call and kept busy creating herring to contribute to this piece travelled down the coast from Musselburgh - we landed them by the bucketload and they all went on display at Turner Contemporary, Margate alongside the fabulous travelling Coat for a Boat project.

Bunting



We hadn't realised, when we added the bunting pattern to our card, quite how bright and plentiful the contributions would be...
