This post is all about the fact that Weaving Yarns, poems, songs and real life stories from the carpet industry, is now available to buy! Here is a link for online purchases from Black Pear Press who have been excellent to work with and have produced a first class item which I’m proud to hold in my hand, read from and generally wave in the air at people. http://blackpear.net/authors-and-books/heather-wastie/ You can also buy copies in the Museum of Carpet shop and from me of course!
(More photos, taken by Tony Judge from Black Pear Press, appear below.)
I am indebted to the following performers who helped me put together an evening’s entertainment of poetry and music, performing their own work as well as mine: Sarah Tamar, Kathy Gee, Mike Alma, Polly Robinson and Kate Wragg. Many thanks to you all for your wonderful work.
I will let the comments of others describe the evening and the book.
It was a wonderful night, good luck with book sales so pleased with my copy terrific poetry and great photos.
