KINLOCHBERVIE...IN THE WORKS...Day 1
The KLB team! Over the next three days, this is our extended Spanner family.
Back row, left to right: Heather, Ben, Billy, Callum, Sean and Alick
Front row, left to right: Bethyn, Molly, Olivia, Iona and Amber
First of all , we all spent an amusing morning getting to know one another, learning about the Spanner projects and donning the all important Spanner...in the works...t-shirts!
This a map of KLB in 1878 and another from 2008, the group figured out what used to be in place of the current houses and took us on a tour of all the most important sites in KLB. We did a lot of walking today!
Task 1.
Derive = draw a circle at random on the 2008 map of Kinlochbervie. In two groups , you must navigate your way round the line of the circle, never leaving the exact route of the circle, no matter what!
One group will go clockwise round the circle, the other will go anti clockwise. Each group must document their journey using drawings, photography, video and collecting found objects along the way. This task will challenge your map reading skills, team work and powers of negociation...the line aint always easy...espacially when it goes through someone's garden!
KLB 1878
KLB 2008
Climbing fences is an art form and there's plenty more where this came from....
Alick's the first to crack it.
Time for a quick look at the map, this derive business is tricky!
Some more head scratching....
Alick crosses the treacherous river in style..on his very own portable bridge.
Yup, it's good and sturdy. Have a go Amber!
Amber discovers a cave!
The boys meet up half way.
Sean shows off his art work...impressed?

Sorry I'm Late!!
Hi, I've just had the chnce to update the blog with my t-shirt design, and well here it is.
I made it by mixing roughly 10 pictures together and playing about with opacity, hue and saturation and inverting. Then i cut up the finished picture and rearranged it. The workshop was really fun and would be good to do again. Ben still has to get his picture uploaded and as usual he'll probably forget(like i did!!)

Bag Ladies!!!!!!!!!!
Wednesday 4 June: Alison Bell's first digital textile workshop with the Spanners.
The group were each given a digital camera and asked to take shots around the Timespan garden, the pictures were then mixed with on line images and digitally manipulated into the designs below. Once finished, the designs were then printed on special transfer paper and ironed onto the bags...easy! and they all look great!!!!!
Alison and Emily making the finishing touches.
Natalie and her Scottish bag!
Ellie goes for Pink!
Emily , Queen of bags!
