Grafik CEO, Judy Kirpich, has recently become hooked on new social media site, Pinterest. This is an example of her textile board.
I created this piece for a textiles project that was inspired by 'Beatrix Potter'. I wanted to take her idea of Peter Rabbit and try out new ways to portray this character and turn it into my own interpretation of a character.
Some material I'm using for the textile pieces I'm making for the Contemporary Textile Group's mail exchange. The piece of paper that's in the pic is 5 x 7", so I can check regularly whether my textile postcards will be the right size.
Honley, West Yorkshire.
A Pennine Textile Village.
Early mention of Honley can be found in the Domesday Book, when the community was called Haneleia, and there has been a settlement here since Roman times.
Cloth making has been a staple activity in Honley since the 11th century, advantage being taken of the many springs of clean water in the neighborhood. The production of woollen cloth was originally in workers' homes, the distinctive Pennine houses, with rows of windows on the upper floor giving better light for the production of cloth. In the 1800s, clothiers began to install cropping frames in their mills, resulting in unemployment for many.
One mill owner, William Horsfall, was murdered near Netherton in 1812 by George Mellor, a local hero, and three other Luddes. They escaped to spend the evening in the Coach and Horses in Eastgate, Honley. In 1817, William Leigh's property in Church Street was also attacked by Luddites.
A chapel was first established in Honley in 1503, St Mary's Parish Church being built in 1843. John Wesley preached in the district in 1772, Methodism being established soon afterwards. A turnpike along the New Mill Road to Brockholes was opened in 1825 and the railway arrived in 1850, when the Huddersfield to Penistone line opened.
In the mid 1880s, Honley had a population of 5,000 and extensive woollen mills, fulling mills and a brewery. The Urban District Council looked after local affairs until the 1930s when it merged with Holmfirth and subsequently with Huddersfield.
Many of the old back-to-back houses in the centre of the village were demolished in the 1970s, although some remain and form the heart of the conservation area. The present day Honley is a thriving, proud community with three schools, three churches and over seventy local societies.

Beck Isle Museum, Bridge Street., Pickering, North Yorkshire.
The Cobbler.
Cobblers made and mended boots and shoes. Until the 1920s most villages had a cobblers shop and there were several in Pickering during Victorian times. Working people usually wore boots or clogs, the men often with gaiters to protect their legs from the mud. Most people walked all the time so their footwear was important and well looked after - as it wore it was usually handed down through the family.
Long boots were worn by men for riding. Children often went barefoot. High fashion (and expensive) shoes for the upper classes were made by cordwainers.
-------------------------------
The Museum was started in 1967 and the collection grew through the generous donations of local people. Now the museum looks after around 50,000 items including photographs, costume and textile, farming, tools and trades and domestic life. There is also a supporting archive of paper ephemera.
