Six members of the Village Quilters attended the launch of the Gwent Bio Tapestry on Friday 6th March at the Riverfront Centre in Newport.
This is a multi media artwork capturing habitats and species in the woodland, aquatic, grassland and urban landscapes of Gwent.
This was the first time all 20 panels that have been created over the last year or so were seen together at a combined length of 70 meters.
After various presentations and thanks, wildife presenter Dr Rhys Jones gave a talk about the importance of diversity and importance of eco systems in Gwent.

The pictures show the principal panel the VQ group worked on as well as contributing to several other panels.
