Over the last year lots of things have been happening, including me taking up making clothes again. Well I decided I could only use so many bags and purses so I needed a fresh outlet for my fabric stash which is currently overflowing.
Our Embroiderer's Guild Branch here in Blackpool had a very successful exhibition in April at Blackpool Central Library., We welcomed lots of visitors and enjoyed lots of positive comments about our work, which is always nice!

Summer Garden and Priscilla are two of the pieces I managed to finish in time to display them in April. I have been busy with lots of projects to try to use up my endless supply of fabric scraps, and produced a couple of canvas mounted pieces after watching Alisa Burke's Grafitti Class.
In between I have been making bags, hearts, kindle cases, and all manner of things to give as gifts but then wishing I could keep them for me! I have also revisited the "She Art" theme which I started a couple of years ago after taking Christy Tomlinson's classes.
These are always a favourite and I love making them just to see how the next girl is going to turn out!
I need to get going on a couple of new things this week - a dress fro my grand daughter and one for me plus a new piece to enter for one of our annual Guild competitions if about 3 weeks time! As usual no pressure - I love to be busy!
