MAKER OF THE DAY

Eliza Lamb

Eliza Lamb was set up by Georgina Nurse to create garments which are timeless and understated, with emphasis on using traditional techniques in construction and design.
The aim has been to highlight the differences between thoughtful well made clothing with its longevity and the disposable trend led clothing with its social and environmental impact.

All fabrics are 100% natural, using mainly linen for its beautiful drape and absorption of dyes, with cupro for lining and buttons coming from the curozo nut.

All garments are made to order to eliminate any unnecessary waste in materials and and other production resources.

The Capital of Craft Podcast with Cathryn Gwynn

Craft Festival Wales Special

I met Cathryn Gwynn at her home studio in Cilgerran, a village near Cardigan in West Wales. 

Her early life in Cardiff led her to a career in writing, editing and finally teaching at Preseli School. She later began an access course in art, leading to a degree in Textiles from Carmarthen School of Art in 2020.

Text, texture and textile: three words which reflect sher practice as a mixed-media artist. She is drawn to thread, pen, ink and paper and work somewhere on the cusp of these materials.

Cathryn Wynn will be giving an illustrated talk about her work at The Capital of Craft at Craft Festival Wales at Cardigan Castle. 

Her work is part of an exhibition of 8 important Welsh makers at Canfas Gallery in Cardigan. Woven, curated by Suzi Park from Cambrian Wool, runs from September 5-October 5th.
