The studio is all set up and ready for tomorrow's workshop. Very excited to welcome more people into our lovely studio.

I managed to assemble the last and final piece today, what seems a simple plant stand has been the hardest item by far. It's going to be a plant stand / coffee table.

I also love the second hand children's wardrobe we collected last week, it's a very solid item which thankfully Simon and Elliott helped collect and put in place. My job was to find an item that would fit in my car! This means I have a great place to store the blank fabric pieces ready for creativity.

The empty boxes on the top of the wardrobe are ready to be packed up and taken to the Back to Nature Fest on Saturday in Chepstow. It's a very busy exciting week.

And the final 🍒 are the lovely new blocks designed by Lovely Lydia in Suffolk and the Indian Ink Block Printing Co more 🐕🐶🐕 designed blocks, it had to be dogs!

Our first workshop in our new home went without a hitch yesterday. The projects turned out beautiful and they left with lots of ideas of things to make with the practice pieces of fabric, from framing them as artwork, making pouches, or cutting out elements to make into birthday cards.

If you would like to come along to a workshop we have many classes already live to book at Craft Courses - please use the link below.

If there is a date you don't see here please reach out as I maybe able to accommodate an extra workshop.

I’m feeling so grateful today.

Thank you so much for helping me achieve my next level of certification with Craft Course, progressing from Bronze to Silver. This means such a lot to me, and I’ve learned so much from you along the way too.

I truly love teaching this traditional creative art form, and I’m so proud to keep growing in it. Thank you for your support and encouragement.
