Working towards an exhibition in January. Have been drawing outside in the lovely weather this afternoon.

One of the exhibits the rest of the flock to follow!

Visited the Spinners and Weavers open day at the Poldrate Arts and Crafts Centre in Haddington today. Great fibres, nice atmosphere and the baking looked too.

Scottish Fibres great selection of Merino wools,

After attending a workshop with Linda Keith and also having to come up with some adornment to wear for the Sew Forth Textile Group’s lunch, I made these earrings.

Made using an old paper back book, scraps of bondaweb, bronze foil, a little piece of merino wool, a few small beads, thread, beading pin, couple of jump rings, and a clip ear piece or other of preferred.

Linda Keith had a great workshop on Sunday at the Poldrate Granary.
We worked so hard and had a wonderful time. Here are some of the images of the day.

We had a great afternoon at the Poldrate Granary making lovely little books. Isabella Simpson took us through the stages. Have a look and see what fun everybody had.
