Textile Map is underway

This weekend we got the basics of the textile map in place. With a helpful group of volunteers we set out the outline of the map of Barra and Vatersay in textiles. We used a large piece of sheet fabric to give us space to include all of the stories and science that we will create over the next four years. Using a giant print out based on a smaller map we cut out the shapes of the island and bondawebbed these to the base layer.

It was very tricky to make sure that these were all in the right place more or less.

But we got there in the end.

Now we need to get as many people as possible involved in creating, images and designs to start to bring the map to life.
