Members:    Margaret Laycock                            

Margaret has had a life long interest in textiles. The interpretation of layers and edges with architecture, particularly Japanese, has led to the use of ochres (a limited palette of colours). The discipline of a more minimalist approach to her current work allows every aspect to be examined and evaluated as to its true value within a piece. This has brought a clearer understanding of her own personal development within the wide world of textiles.
