Hi Both! Maddening isn’t it? Good to be busy, but why does it all happen at once? I’ve stuck a to-do list on my pinboard and over the next 6 weeks I have to: -run embroidery workshop for Craftswoman’s club […]
aah…but today you will be proud of me. Today I drove for a hour through green country lanes dotted with white Queen Anne Lace and breathed the air and watched the sun burn through the mist. I collected the plinths, […]
Debby Besford’s talk went well and we had an interesting lot of questions afterwards. We bought a copy of her book, “The Boudoir of the Burlesque Performer”, for our nascent Project Space library. It seems strange to be able to […]

It’s been a long and very hot day – not good for mongolian throat warbling sounds. However the Fruitflowers are all up and look fabulous. As would be expected it was much harder than expected to put them up but […]
