| Marion and Marjory |
I’m really pleased
that my latest article in Popular Patchwork features my friends, the sisters
Marjory McKinven and Marion Robertson.
Marjory and Marion are both lovely people, always ready with smiles, encouragement
and laughter. Marjory has also been a
fantastic help to me this year with the C&G course, whilst Ruth has been
too ill to teach. Marjory also creates
the most amazing hand-dyed fabric.

The reason for the
article is that they are having their first joint exhibition in August in
Carradale, on the Mull of Kintyre, where Marjory spends more and more of her
time. Carradale really is a long way
from anywhere, but I assume that is part of its charms. We’re heading down to see the show and are
going to take the tent (and the kids) with us, as there is a campsite besides
the village.

So if you are
looking for something interesting to do over the August Bank Holiday weekend,
why not come up to remote and beautiful Scotland?
Their exhibition ‘From
the River to the Sea’ runs from Friday 22nd to Sunday 24th
August from 10am to 5pm. Email marjorymckinven@hotmail.com for
further information.

Lovely work there and I'm sure the exhibition will be a huge success.
