I've just realised that it's a week since my last post and I just can't break my resolution!
I went on Saturday to the Spring Quilt Show at Ardingly. I have to go every year as it's only just down the road and it would really be silly not to! Yet again it was very good with a good selection of quilts to see and plenty of traders to spend money at. I very stupidly forgot to take my camera which was a pity as there were one of two quilts that I particularly liked and would have definitely taken photos if I had remembered the camera. I was quite restrained on the buying - just a few silk fabrics and some dyed threads, and the yellow star buttons that I needed for Samuel hanging.
I've signed up to an online course with Dale Rollerson called 'Embellish Stitch and Enrich' which I hope is going to help me make fuller use of the embellisher machine I bought last year. I have spend this evening making a start on lesson one so hopefully in the next few days I will get some photos posted. So far I have created some lovely surfaces which are crying out for stitches so it's looking as though my embroidery roots will be coming to the surface again.
Watch this space......
