On officially the hottest day of the year, more than 70 members and guests of The Arts Society Dumfries and Galloway gathered at Mabie House Hotel for a delicious vintage style afternoon tea with a stimulating talk and entertainment.
On arrival people entered a hotel lobby that had been transformed into a beautiful exhibition space featuring a number of stunning hand embroidered jackets in gold and silver thread.
They were the work of former member, the late Shirley McKeand, and Margot McIntyre of Textiles & Embroidery Dumfries. Margot even managed to attract a private commission for a bespoke piece for a member who was completely blown away by what she saw.
