In our July meeting we had a fascinating talk by Helen Sill about the embroidery and weaving of Gujarat. Helen has been leading specialist embroidery tours to many parts of the world, including many different areas of India. She touched on some of her other travels, for example to Uzbekistan, and then focussed on Gujarat. Before that, she mentioned some of her own work. There are a few examples of her sketches below, followed by photos of some of the very extensive collection of embroideries and weavings from Gujarat that she brought with her.
