Colouricious Television Programme

Here is information about the television programme my work and I are going to be on, it will take you to face book and there is a photograph of me, I am the one who looks looking as though she is counting up sums on her fingers. The first episode is going to be on 14th October- Country Channel tv and sky 171

I have been away teaching on a South east Regional Embroiderers Guild Summer School Weekend at Earnley which is on the coast near to Selsey Bill. Lovely students, all of whom had such a wonderful sense of fun and a great amount of talent about them. We had a great time all busily stitching away producing delightful Machine Embroidery pieces, very satisfying.
The next weekend was taken up with being at the studio on the Saturday and then getting up at 5.15am on the Sunday to spread my treasures/rubbish at our local car book, again a very satisfying weekend. I loved watching all the people at the car book. Such a wonderful mixture of all sorts!

My new pieces for Origin Week Two 13th-18th October stand No. B1 are coming along slowly but surely, I am very excited about what I am making. At the moment I am making little animal pieces, in the snow, in the autumn leaves, at the sea-side - lovely.
Tomorrow I must begin a drawing for a client about her family and their home, I have been mulling it over for a while now, and now I want to begin it. The finished piece is for Christmas time, so I have time to play with and time to make. I hate making clients wait for either their drawings or their pieces, but sometimes you just have to wait yourself until it is the right time for you to begin making. It feels somewhat selfish but in my heart I know it is the right thing to do. if I rush into it, the piece will just not come out right.
