New Display!

I’ve been contemplating how to best display my headpieces for upcoming displays, and had an idea, which seems to have worked.

I was actually looking for a collapsible display head on eBay when I saw a display for sunglasses, and thought ‘headbands’! It really is a perfect fit for the knotted silk ones. Some are too wide, but I’m thinking of trying to repurpose a pan lid holder which fits to the inside of a kitchen cupboard door.

Unfortunately I heard today that the organisers of the Sudbury silk festival have decided not to decorate the Gainsborough statue in a hat and scarf. However, I have had a new idea for a sculptural silk hat which I will endeavour to make for the festival.

Extra is of a plum struesel cake I experimented in making today, based on one I had when in Switzerland. It’s not a bad effort, and made from plums gifted from a neighbour
