I had planned to visit &#8220;Through the eye of the Needle&#8221; &#8211; the exhibition of the Wollongong Group of the Embroiderers Guild NSW &#8211; on my way down south. Unfortunately that was the day of the very ferocious East Coast Low weather event, and roads were closed all throughout the region. I made my way to my destination via a safer route.<\/p>\n<p>On the way home though, I was able to visit. And I am so glad that I did! The exhibition was beautifully presented by the gallery. The work was of a very high standard, and the range of styles and techniques was very wide. There is something for all embroiderers in this exhibition, whether you like counted embroidery, whitework, freestyle work, gold work&#8230; the list goes on.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style
