Quilting & Textile Design Course completed......

Changing the surface of fabric by layering techniques is the idea behind our Quilting & Textile Design Course and our latest students grasped this with both hands.
They kindly gave us permission to take lots of snaps while they worked, but I'm sorry to say the battery on my camera ran out. However, Carolyn continued to take some photos and will show you those soon, but for now I'll show you how far I got......

If you've been following us through the stages we think you'll agree the work our students have achieved is wonderful. They have sampled a variety of mixed media techniques and applied this knowledge to create some gorgeous coverings for their sample books. The books themselves are looking fat and full with all the samples, which are now their own resource for future work.

Probably just as well my camera gave up or you would have been wading through a stream of snaps, pop back soon and see Carolyn's.

We would like to say a huge thank you to our ladies, who were a fabulous bunch to work and laugh with, we put the world to rights many times, and to Carolyn who brought home-made Devonshire scones with jam and cream today, delicious.

Thanks for reading and we'd love to hear from you so please leave us a message.
Back soon
Sue
