Just a big thank you to.....

all my students this year who have definitely worked hard from the Level one to the Level three and I am very proud and pleased to say that everyone passed.

I have really enjoyed this year and the students have made it such a great class to teach.

Here are some of the photos of their fantastic work, sorry about the quality but I forgot my camera and used my phone so if any of my students have better photos please send them to me and I will post them up to share with everyone.




Next year will be different as there is no funding for City and Guilds Level 2 and 3 so I am only teaching Level 1 and a new course for me called N.C.F.E, which looks really good fun and I can’t wait.

Busy beaver.....

I have been working on a technique for my next class, Textile and Embroidery – Manipulation at Waltham Forest Adult College, and after mastering the technique I decided to turn it into a bag.... tah dah.......
I asked chloe if she liked it and she couldn't believe how you start off with such a big piece of fabric and end up with such a small bag at the end.
It's funny watching it gradually shrink as you keep working into it. But as I really enjoyed making it and i've got the pile of fabric that I won from Maggie Grey I am thinking of making an even bigger bag. But i'm off to north Norfolk for a few days break tomorrow so watch this space.

Here are some brooches that I made as well for the E17 spring market. Although I never work in these colours it's great to get you in the mood for summer.
