Season's Greetings
Seems to me the last time I wrote we were off to Yorkshire for a holiday. It was great and it seems so long ago I won't bore you with all the wonderful photos of the Dales. I did get my piece for the Studio 21 'Chinese Whispers' finished and we had a super exhibition in October.
Here are some of the photos from South Hill Park... Watch this space - we are seeking more venues in the UK at the moment. Our website for more information is http://www.studio21textileart.co.uk/
My 'Design Essentials' course is now happening!
It will be about understanding good design and composition for stitched textiles.
The classes will run from 1 March in 5 sessions (with homework) Although not a vocational course it will be a comprehensive guide to good composition for art quilts and stitched textiles. We will be exploring the elements and principles of design. This will include ideas such as consolidating themes, working in series, the essentials of line, shape, form, colour, texture, abstraction through a series of collage exercises with some art practise, print and digital imagery. For each session there will be a complete set of notes, demonstrations and exercises to follow and there will be some homework.
5 classes will run every 2 weeks on Saturdays
1st , 15th and 29th March, and the 12th and 26th of April. 2014. 9.30am to 4pm

I do appreciate that it might be a distance for many, but Midsomer Quilting, where I am hiring the workshop, does have a list of accomodation nearby. http://www.midsomerq.com
That is all for now, Christmas is coming and it is a busy time for everyone.
Have a great holiday and I wish you and your family all the very best in 2014.
Thanks for reading......
