Yarns Artwork in Silk

Galleries, Museums and Collections

This large-scale textile treasure has been created in four panels, each measuring three-and-a-half metres by four metres. Crafted by more than 300 local artists, it took 10,000 hours and 200 metres of hand-dyed silk to complete. The artists have employed a number of techniques including embroidery, cross-stitch, weaving, patchwork and quilting to create Yarns.

Yarns Artwork in Silk tells the story of the local area – exploring its history, landscape and culture. The display includes an audiovisual presentation which expands on the work and is housed at the Great Western Tiers Visitor Centre in Deloraine.

Yarns were awarded a 2020 Travellers Choice Award based on consistently good reviews through TripAdvisor.

Deloraine and the surrounding district is one of Tasmania’s most significant regional centres for art and crafts. Visit today and be amazed and inspired!
