The Victoria & Albert Museum is hosting a small but interesting exhibit on maps by Susan Stockwell. She uses 'stitched up' commodities (literally & metaphorically) to create maps. Thus South America is made from used coffee filter papers and the United Kingdom is formed from old tea bags! Well worth a visit on the way to the RGS (and it's right outside the cafe), but you'll have to be quick as it closes on 31st October. I have a copy of the accompanying leaflet if anyone wants more information.
