Review: William Jefferies : A Life In Tapestry
Exhibition Morley Gallery, London 20 January to 7 February 2026 Review by Ngaire Thomson, January 2026 As an ex-student of William Jefferies, I must firstly declare that I have a positive bias towards any work that William produces, I find his work inspirational and this exhibition does not disappoint...

Artist of the week: Veronica Collins
I am addicted to colour - my heart thumps, pulse races, and my fingers twitch towards the bobbin.The best fix is weaving tapestry where I am immersed in my treasured stash of wool, silk, linen and wire.
My inspiration, aside from colour, is often the things I see everyday, perhaps something catches the light in an usual way. Very often there is a memory or a story that unravels in my head first as I walk, then as I weave.
