Jan gave a very interesting and well prepared talk on Shasiko, Kantha and Boro. You can read about her talk in the newsletter, but below you will find some photos of some of the samples she showed us. It is hard to believe that she only began to explore these techniques in October last year. She is becoming a real expert!
