This months inspiration at classes is all things to do

with circles, curves, plates and Suffolk Puffs.

I am demonstrating the traditional ways of doing them

and the modern way with rulers and rotary.

'Easy Dresden Ruler' on my tech site

Kings Lynn Embroidery Guild

On the 29th February was The Kings Lynn Embroidery Guild

meeting and Pauline Wrighton came along to,

'Share a Stitch', which meant her giving a short talk

on how she became a full time artist and then

putting her 11 years of sketchbooks and workbooks

on the tables so that we could look through and be inspired.

Pauline came round and chatted and gave us some great

tips.

The one for me was to buy similar ring bound sketchbooks

and cut between the rings so that the pages

can be taken out and moved around as necessary,

especially when comprising a themed book!

Thank you Pauline for an interesting evening.

Wednesday Course Prep

After card class I have been doing Course Prep so

that people who were unable to come along on the

Tuesdays and want to put portfolios together, sampling or

learn machine skills they can.

The sessions are from 11.30 until 2.45 and

are on until the City and Guilds Awards Level One and Two

start on Wednesday 28th March 2012.

The Awards are for 8 weeks and then they will

start again in September along with City and Guilds.

Please contact myself or The Gallery if you are

interested in these courses.
