Sewing Seeds

If you have been in the Heritage Hub on a Tuesday recently, you might have noticed that the Dunrossil Room is a hive of activity. Following on from the successful Stitch in Time project that was hosted by Gloucestershire Archives as part of City Voices in 2021, this group of women from all over Gloucestershire, have come together again, sharing skills and stories to create ‘Sewing Seeds’ - a new artwork inspired by the gardens of the Heritage Hub.

This stunning artwork will be sited in the foyer in the Spring, and is being made from recycled and reclaimed materials, as well as fabrics that have been dyed using flowers from the garden. It was been inspired by the traditional ‘ Grandmother’s Garden’ Quilt pattern, and some of our very own staff have contributed hexagons!
