Lin Brown workshop

Recently attended another days workshop with Lin Brown and heartily recommend these as great value and a lot of fun to go to ...

This is the page I made (I did the machine stitching at home) by bonding fabric to paper and then using Paperartsy paints, stamps and stencils to add background colour and interest ...


And for something completely different a couple of cards inspired by Gossamer Blue ...


For someone who wasn't going to blog much I am doing quite well this week!

Beryl Taylor

I took a workshop recently with the truly wonderful textile artist Beryl Taylor - please check her out if you don't know her - her work is awesome and to see a lot of it 'in real life' was just fabulous.

We were making fabric books and this is how mine finished up ...
















Not the most cohesive of projects (my poor choices - not Beryls) but very enjoyable to make and I quite like the finished result
