This week I went on pilgrimage to see Mary Linwood at Tate Britain, and Mary Knowles next to her. And then Mary L next to her own embroidered Napoleon at the V&A where I had to fight through queues of swifties. 1/2

I like to think that ML would be more understanding of the overcrowding than me, given that she was a massive celebrity in her time.

I said I was coming back to Twix land to talk about my forthcoming textile history project but I might as well also tell you about my current (this week only) exhibtion in my garden studio. It’s about the loss of front gardens and other land-based projects. 1/2

Well Twitter folks, I’ve not really been using this space much, let alone @criminalquilts which is mothballed. But it’s time to come back as I’ve got a big new textile history project to share and this is the best place for textile-historian-museum networking, isn’t it?

PS you paid staff in #arts orgs - #artsfreelancers are done with surveys, surveys, more surveys esp where questions are leading - eg ‘which of these services would you like best?’ Ie excludes factors not on yr radar). And no, entering a prize draw isn’t attraction you think…

Great reflections from @ruthsinger on the value - and skills - of public engagement (from an arts / creative practice perspective, applies to other areas too) -

Had a great day with @glam_cares introducing values and behaviours using bingo and snakes and ladders. My area of research is the bit between freelancers / artists, participants & organisations and how care is essential to making this collaboration work 💫

Come on folks, this needs doing. Yes expensive but the cost might focus some minds on not letting things get so bad another time, another place… maybe somewhere you love. Please sign and share.
