点评:This is an excellent place to visit. As my wife is learning the art of quilting we took the opportunity to travel to Lampeter despite the long drive. It was well worth the trip. As it was our first visit we were treated to a guided tour by Jen Jones whose passion for Welsh quilts is self evident. The exhibition space is divided up into several rooms over two floors. The quilts are simply displayed with excellent notes on separate sheets. We have been to several exhibitions in both large and small buildings such as the NEC and the Malvern show but none are were effective , imho , in showing the beauty of the quilts as the displays at this centre. It was also very refreshing to see bed quilts actually shown on beds! It provides a great context. In addition to the main quilts there was a lovely display of work by Viviene Finch showing miniature cot quilts. The continuous loop video about the collection and the making of a felt quilt lasted an hour and was very informative. It was good to see plenty of seating in the rooms to allow deeper contemplation!. Finally there is a great shop with high quality gifts , books and craft kits.
I would suggest you allow at least two and ideally three hours to fully appreciate the displays. It is possible to leave and return to the centre having refreshed one’s self at one of the many tea rooms , cafes and restaurants along the high street.
All in all a great and enjoyable day out that we will be repeating later in the year as the exhibitions change.
翻译:这是一个游览的好地方。由于我的妻子正在学习绗缝艺术,我们趁机前往兰彼得,尽管车程很长。这次旅行非常值得。由于这是我们第一次来访,Jen Jones 为我们提供了导游,她对威尔士被子的热情是不言而喻的。展览空间分为两层楼的几个房间。这些被子简单地展示在单独的床单上,并附有精美的注释。我们参加过大大小小的建筑中的几次展览,例如 NEC 和 Malvern 展览,但恕我直言,没有一个展览能够有效地在该中心展示被子的美丽。看到床上的被子实际展示在床上也很令人耳目一新!它提供了一个很好的背景。除了主要的被子之外,还有 Viviene Finch 的可爱作品展示,展示了微型婴儿床被子。关于该系列和毡被制作的连续循环视频持续了一个小时,内容非常丰富。很高兴看到房间里有足够的座位,可以进行更深入的思考!最后还有一家很棒的商店,出售高品质的礼品、书籍和工艺品。
我建议您至少留出两个小时,最好是三个小时来充分欣赏这些展示。离开和返回市中心时,您可以在大街上众多的茶室、咖啡馆和餐馆之一恢复精力。
总而言之,这是一个美好而愉快的一天,随着展览的变化,我们将在今年晚些时候重复这一天。
