Liverpool Road Estate



I am currently working on a project creating bunting from fabric triangles collected from the residents of the Samuel Lewis Estate at Liverpool Road. The work seeks to turn textiles that form the fabric of our everyday lives into strings of bunting for the 100 year celebrations of the estate. The project is in association with Tall Tales (the team behind the Market Estate) but with a very different feel as the Samuel Lewis Estate is a shining example of successful social housing, with a community of people (many who have lived there for generations) who are keen to collaborate.

The celebration event will be held on Sunday 5th September for the residents of the estate.

If anyone would like to donate a triangle the template is here for you to do so!
