It has been wonderful to be on the other side of the fence and be a student for a couple of days. I have had the most fantastic time with Kathleen Laurel Sage making a fairy doll
She is a great teacher and I had a lovely time doing something quite different to quilting. I have not stitched and burnt organzas for several years or done so much embellishment so had great fun letting go.
This little fairy will be finding her way into someones stocking this year.
Making some Christmas gifts this year has made me think that this is the way to go and next year most of my gifts will be made (I will have to start in January I think as I want to make a few quillows)
Luckily I now have my new studio and no excuses for lack of productivity.
This weekend I am having my first students to have a dyeing, using resists and discharge pastes weekend. Should be messy and fun.
I have also been involved in a lovely group project making a lap quilt for a very special friend. We each made a block of blues and greens with a pop of orange. You can see more of this on Pams Blog
