I-Knitter irekhoda amaphethini egilavu ukusindisa imiklamo ye-Sanquhar
UMay MacCormick waseSanquhar, ungomunye wabakhi bokugcina abanolwazi olugcwele lwemiklamo yamagilavu yaseSanquhar.
Izinto eziyingqayizivele zixhunywe ngokomlando nedolobhana futhi ukudalwa kwazo sekuphenduke ubuciko obunciphayo.
Imiklamo yabo ye-monochrome ihlehlela emuva ekhulwini le-18 futhi uMeyi uzimisele ukugcina isiko liqhubeka.
Utshele i-BBC Scotland News ukuthi "kubalulekile" ukugcina imboni yamakotishi ukuze izuze izizukulwane.
Amagilavu e-Sanquhar ayelukwe ngokwesiko ngephethini eyinkimbinkimbi, emnyama nemhlophe futhi ayethengiswa izakhamuzi ukuze zixhase umholo wazo ngekhulu le-18 nele-19.
UMay uthe imiklamo eminingi ayikaze ibhalwe phansi.
Kunamaphethini amagilavu angu-16 futhi usewafakile amaphethini angu-11 ephepheni.
“Lezi zinto ziyalahleka uma zingaqoshwa futhi awukufuni lokho ngokwesiko,” kusho yena.
"Kunezikhala ezanele emlandweni wokuluka iSanquhar njengoba injalo. Asazi ukuthi iqhamukephi, siyazi ukuthi bekuyimboni yama-cottage kodwa asazi ukuthi iqhamuke kuphi nokuthi iqale nini."
Ukunitha amagilavu ezinalithini ezine kudala umphumela ongenamthungo
Lesi sibonisi sibonisa iphethini yesokisi eyodwa kanye namaphethini amagilavu we-Sanquhar angu-16, amanye angenamagama.
UMay wabelana ngolwazi lwakhe ngemiboniso kanye nokuvakasha esikhungweni somphakathi i-A' The Airts e-Sanquhar.
UJudith Hewitt, uCurator for Dumfries and Galloway Museums (East), uthe: “Ngeminyaka yawo-1770s, bekubonakala kuphawuleka ukuthi iSanquhar ibizibandakanya nezingubo ezigqokwayo futhi abantu abaningi edolobheni bebezibandakanye embonini yezingubo zokugqoka.
"Kungenzeka ukuthi iSanquhar ibisemthanjeni omkhulu phakathi kweDumfries neGlasgow ngakho ibinezindawo ezimbili ebingahwebelana futhi idayisele kuzo."
I-Sanquhar nayo yaziwa kakhulu ngokwenza ukhaphethi kanti omunye umbono uthi amagilavu ekuqaleni ayequkethe i-carpet weave, ewenza abe namandla futhi aqine kakhudlwana.
Imiklamo yanikezwa amagama afana ne-Cornet ne-Drum, i-Fleur de Lys, i-Prince of Wales, i-Pheasant's Eye kanye ne-Shepherd's Plaid.
Iphethini edume kakhulu, idizayini ye-"Duke" yezicukuthwane, eqanjwe ngamaDukes of Queensberry futhi kamuva no-Buccleuch, kungenzeka ukuthi nayo yaphakamisa iphrofayili yezingubo eziluka.
Amanye amaphethini ahlanganisa umklamo othi "Midge and Flea" kanye nephethini "Rose", eyaqanjwa ngo-1930, ngemva kokuzalwa kukaPrincess Margaret Rose.
U-May wafunda lo msebenzi wezandla kumama wakhe, owayewufundiswe e-Scottish Women's Institute (SWI) e-Sanqhuar.
Njengabanye abaningi, umklamo wokuqala awufundile kwakuyiphethini kaDuke.
UMay uthe: “Ngesikhathi ngishada futhi ngifika eSanquhar, yilapho engaziswa khona ngawo wonke amanye amaphethini ahlukene yintokazi eyayinegunya kuyo.
"Lapho enquma ukuthi ngeke esawaluka amagilavu, wayephethe iglavu yawo wonke amaphethini futhi wangibuza ukuthi ngingathanda yini amagilavu akhe futhi uma kungenjalo, bazoya emnyuziyamu."
Ngokwesiko abamnyama nabamhlophe, izicelo zesimanje zamagilavu zenziwa ngeminye imibala
UMay wacabanga ukuthi amagilavu kufanele aye emnyuziyamu kodwa wabuza owesifazane - uJane Forsyth - ukuthi angakwazi yini ukwenza izifaniso ngaphambi kokuba zihambe.
Eminyakeni embalwa edlule, uMeyi ubelokhu eqopha imiklamo.
Uthe: “Kunezingu-10 ezishicilelwe, sekusele ezeshumi nanye ezizophuma ngakho-ke ngisazilungisa kanjalo ngalomzuzu.
"Ngibhala phansi njengoba ngilukile, yindlela engenze ngayo."
I-Prince of Wales, Shepherd's Plaid kanye neMidge kanye neFlea kuphakathi kwamaphethini angaklanyelwe ngendlela eyisikwele.
Ngaphakathi kwamaphetheni angu-16 amagilavu e-Sanqhuar, ayisishiyagalolunye anomklamo oyisikwele, uMay azi ngekhanda.
Kodwa usebenzise amagilavu akhe ayifaniso ukuze abhale amanye amaphethini ayisikhombisa.
Wengeze wathi: "Amaphethini ayisikwele abelula kakhulu ngoba ukubunjwa kwawo kuyafana nje kwawo wonke, yilokho okufaka esigcawini okwenza kuhluke."
Amagilavu alukwe ezinalithini ezine ezincane kakhulu nxazonke ukuze kungabikho umthungo.
Ingxenye yesiko ukunitha amagama okuqala omnikazi ku-cuff, ukwenza amagilavu abe ngewakho.
UMay uthe: “Inani lemithungo oyisebenzisayo, liyakhula, liyancipha, yonke into iyafana kodwa ubukhulu benaliti nobukhulu boboya okwenza umehluko.
Ubeqhuba amakilasi okufundisa abantu ukwenza amagilavu e-Sanquhar nokugcina isiko liphila.
Ngesikhathi sobhubhane, bekukhona namakilasi okusondeza ku-inthanethi, asesingathwa ku-YouTube.
UMay uqophe iphethini ye-Duke, eyisakhiwo sodumo semiklamo yamagilavu yase-Sanquhar
U-May usiza ngezikhathi ezithile ngokunitha esikhungweni se-A' The Airts, kodwa ngokuvamile uhlanganisa amagilavu ngokusebenza, njengoba nje umama wakhe enza.
"Umlomo nje impela. Laba baya entombazaneni eneminyaka engu-15," esho eveza amagilavu aluhlaza namhlophe.
"Ngiqeda kuqeda amagilavu mfana kanti umfana useminyakeni yawo-20. Ngithola ukuthi baningi abantu abancane abawafunayo manje."
