Where did April go? Visitors - Easter - Lots of commitments - An exhibition and a 90th Birthday Party. It passed in a blur. Almost too busy to stop and take note.
Hoops stitched by members from branches of Scottish Embroiderers` Guild. They looked really great at Regional Day. 214 delegates and the sun shone.
My grandchildren decorated these boxes and proudly took them home. I love the way the grandchildren now take ownership of The Studio when they visit. A relief to know they still enjoy creating and can be detached from their phones and tablets.
From this
To this in 2 days
" Played " while the kids painted and decorated their boxes.
I suspect they thought I was mucking about while they did "proper" stuff.
My Golden Fluids arrived. Will stash them away before grandchildren return.
The Fabric Book with Pocket, workshop was a colourful busy day. Never enough time in a one day workshop, everyone took home bits and bobs to finish in their own time.
The theme was circles and finding stitches to attach fabric.
Visited the Knitting and Stitch Show. Plan was to view all the exhibits but not to buy. Came home with a load of goodies, as you do.
A workshop with Bobby Britnell - Back to Basics.
Paper, a graphic stick and lines .
A great workshop and super tutor.
2nd exhibition at Verdant Works hung and opened.
I am so pleased the Shadows worked on my piece."(" so am I " said creative fairy)
It took a lot of trials before I managed the correct size and angle to get the shadows. Repeating the cog edges.
That was some of April. Oh and the computer played up.
Look in next week to read about a workshop " Any Old Iron" I am tutoring
