Silk Painting

Margot Colgate with the exhibition of work on 4 March 2008.

The Cheadle Silk Painting Group which has been in existence for three years is planning to  become part of Cheadle U3A in September.  Members will have the opportunity to have a go at silk painting during the Summer term 2008 at a cost of only £1.50 per session with materials included.  This is a trial period of up to four sessions and an excellent opportunity to make up your mind whether this is for you before buying a kit.

In September the cost per session will be £1 but members taking part will have to provide their own materials.

Silk painting is more than making cushions!  Scarves, cards, ties, small tablecloths, silk on glass vases, blouses and jackets are amongst the articles made by the group.  Their are many different techniques to use, for example salt, beads and embroidery.

The group meets in the back room of the Guild Hall from April 9th, on Wednesday mornings from 10.30 to 12.30 during term time.  With a limited number of places available please contact Margot Colgate as soon as possible to reserve your place and get further information from Margot on 01538 751747.
