Ray Materson visits Fine Cell Work
We were thrilled to learn that our good friend Ray Materson was visiting the UK in early June to be interviewed by Libby Purves on her Radio 4 Midweek Show. He had a busy schedule but still managed to stop off to visit us.
Ray is known internationally as a self-taught artist who found inspiration in a pair of socks while in prison in the USA. Ray traded some cigarettes for a pair of socks, secured a sewing needle from a prison guard and started stitching his way to redemption. More information on his wonderful story can be found at www.raymaterson.com - do visit his site, it is truly amazing.
In the photo below Ray is seen here with Rebecca Mistry our Sales Manager and his children Savannah and David. He brought with him some of his latest works, including a portrait of Queen Victoria, stitched entirely in threads from socks, and made especially for the trip here to the UK.
Thank you for coming to see us Ray, we know your schedule was hectic!

Tapestry Finishing & Cushion Making Service
Have you ever been given a tapestry or needlepoint kit as a gift, or bought one yourself only to start it but stop half or even a quarter of the way through? If this sounds like a familiar scenario then our tapestry finishing service might just prove of interest to you.
Our stitchers love working on our designs but they also enjoy seeing something different from time to time and in particular the challenge of successfully completing something that has already been started.
One of stitchers HMP Kingston recently completed a tapestry featuring Zarafa, the giraffe who was led from Egypt to Paris in the 17th century. He was absolutely delighted to have been given the project, and we sent him the story of the animal's amazing voyage, so he could understand the backdrop to the wonderful scene he was stitching. It was completed in record time and the tapestry looked amazing on completion, the customer was delighted and the stitcher enjoyed the challenge.
If you have a tapestry that needs to be finished then please do get in touch and we'll be happy to quote you a price.
