Ferry Park Gallery ‘Artist of Month’ – October

Ferry Park Gallery Artist of the Month is Gloria Lee, featuring her machine embroidered household items.

Gloria describes her work as “I have always had an interest in sewing, having make most of my children’s clothing in their younger years. About 17 years ago I decided to purchase an embroidery machine to ‘pretty up’ my towels and clothing. It did not take long to realise that I would need to sell some of my work if I wanted to keep sewing. I began by doing Markets every weekend, but after three and a half years I was accepted as an exhibitor at Ferry Park Gallery where my Australiana items are a great hit. My work is also available at the Maclean Scottish Town Shop where visitors and looking for that little bit of Scotland.”

Gloria has a large variety of items available in her Artist of the Month display at Ferry Park Gallery. Items include the regular towels and washer sets (both baby & adult), tea towels, kitchen towels, golf & bowls towels, pillowcases. These are very practical household items that also make great gifts.
