The Art Gallery of Northumberland hosted a Fun with Fibre Day to coincide with March Break. They invited fibre artists from the area to demonstrate and share their enthusiasm for fibre. The mediums represented included:
- rug hooking (of course!)
- knitting
- quilting
- spinning
- wet felting & needle felting
- weaving
There were lots of eager participants - toddlers, children and quite a few adults. It was great to see everyone there, surrounded by gorgeous rugs.

| Spinners wear hand knit socks! |
