(detail)
Workroom almost squeaky clean, I can see surfaces.
Little diversions and discoveries such as this little quilt
made more years ago than I care to mention. It has
been languishing in the back of a cupboard. A
suitable case for recycling. Obviously it does not need
over dyeing! The centre panel is a hand stitched
Indian embroidery motif on calico. This needs some
tiny self coloured stitched to the background. The plan
is to cut it up and make a bag for my camera.
Tomorrow is the first dyeing workshop of the year.
I always mean to buy either chef's whites or
decorators overalls, as a canvas. I had a look
around and decided that perhaps I would just
make a big wrap around apron. By the end of
the year it should be quite colourful. On the
way home I popped into our local charity shop
and found two beautiful white cotton sheets,
so soft after much washing, just the things.

Hi Tiggy
Do you still do workshops in your consevatory - and also do you have a mailing list for workshops - if so can you add me to it, I really out to do more than just horses I'm getting a bit boring

Apron made, with large wraparound, to accommodate the casual rubbing of hands. Should be interesting.
Liz - yes, and I have a mailing list. I'll add you! Due to being totally immersed in exhibition(!) I am a bit behind, but should have a workshop schedule together very soon! It will be good to see you again.
Many thanks
I hope to get over and see your exhibtion maybe this weekend.
I'm still at the same address at Creekmoor if you have it - or you can use my email address liz@racsaddleclub.co.uk
