Val d'Argent - Inspiration

On the 18th of September I went to the Val d'Argent in France for a big quilt and textile art exhibition.
These are two books I bought there:
"Textile Nature" by Elsbeth Nusser-Lampe, a German artist and very nice lady I met at my sketchbook class with Jean and Jan last year. Her work is very feminine and delicate.

This is the second book I bought there. Lots of information and an interesting chapter on how to blend colours in machine stitchery.

Of course there was a lot of beautiful art work. These are a few examples on black and white embroidery and textile works.
