Previous Exhibitors of the Month

October 2009 ~ Green Star Quilts

The aim of my business is to make individual patchwork quilts using traditional methods, to comfort and delight children and become treasured family heirlooms.

Designs include lots of animals, cars,tractors and little children doing everyday things.

I never repeat designs exactly and each quilt is unique. The sizes vary from a 'new baby' playmat to single bed size. I also make memory quilts using your child's outgrown clothes.

Commissions are welcomed and examples of previously made quilts can be seen on my website www.greenstarquilts.com

September to December 2008 ~ Serena and Julie

August 2008 ~ Paul Mellor

Paul is a self taught artist and started painting in 1992.

Watercolour was the medium he started with, but after seeing work by an American artist in pastel on velour paper, he tried it and has never looked back.

Paul specialises in equestrian art but also paints wildlife and architecture (local scenes).
