Frances Pickering workshop . . .

This weekend, I did a Frances Pickering workshop, making a hand dyed book made with card, Vilene, and paper, which I based on the theme of my LOGO!

It remains unfinished, but I plan to add more detail every now and then, or when I have more time.

It was most enjoyable and part of my continuous professional development to learn new, or enhance existing skills.

I will blog more about it when I have more to show.

Another glove . . .

my second glove, which includes . . .

bits and . . .

buttons
This is my second glove I worked on during the Mandy Pattullo workshop back in April.  It includes applied net, sequins, buttons, and various acquired bits!  I worked on a glove shaped template, which was coloured vilene - it was already coloured pink by Mandy.  I worked with a theme of red, black and pink, with a splash of dark deep green, as I was looking for a hot colour theme vaguely based on mediterranean/latin/spanish colours, and in complete contrast to my other glove.
