Stitching in Wales, between the mountains and the sea  . . . . .

Oh! What a week!

Actually, a very good week, although my brain may be feeling slightly frazzled. I have been spending my time doing not one but TWO courses.

The first was with Alice Sheridan, it was her Time to Shine Course a “bite sized programme to re-invigorate your relationship with social media”. I found it excellent, thought provoking and informative. While I have not quite yet mastered “Reels” or a facebook live session – I do now have some idea of how it could be done! As well as “how to” instruction, the lessons were also marvellous for boosting self-confidence in the safe environment of a private facebook group.

The second course was Louise Fletchers free taster course Find Your Joy, this was a taster course for her full Find you Joy Course. The taster course was as we say here in Wales “champion”and the four exercises were fun and certainly gave me some food for thought. I loved working with a dip pen, and now have one on my shopping list. Who would have thought! It did rather take me back to school, where we had dip pens – my fingers were always blue, and I did make blots in my writing classes!

I feel that I can build on the assignments which (fingers crossed) will breath some interesting developments in my textile work. Which I will then be able to share on social media hopefully in a less random manner!

As yet – with both these courses, I have no idea of the final destination – but it will be interesting finding out

So – watch this space, you may spot the image below appearing on my instagram page, thank you Alice!
