'The First Cut' has to be one of the most inspirational, and most beautiful exhibitions that I have seen in a long time. It was a real treat to be able to find the time to visit Manchester Art Gallery this afternoon. I have always been interested in the manipulation of papers, usually combining the media alongside threads, in order to create my pieces of work. I have chosen images of work that I felt most inspired my work- and also pieces that I feel I may be able to incorporate into my machine/ hand embroidery samples for the rest of the week.
