Threads of War Exhibition 2016

Throughout July 2016 the WW1 Group staged the ‘Threads of War’ exhibition in the Mechanics’ Institute Library.  Opened by the Lord Mayor on Saturday 2 July, the display comprised creative textiles in a range of styles reflecting aspects of the Great War.  The exhibition was curated by Annie Parkinson of the East Riding Commemorative Quilts Group and the Bradford Libraries reading rug was also available for visitors to test their rag-rug skills!
