First Workshop at Indigo Moon

"Keep Safe"



The wonderful Christine Kelly held our first workshop here at Indigo Moon 
(19th September)

L-R: Ginny, Trish, Nichola, Sue, Melanie, Christine, Heather and Cath

I felt like a mother hen throughout the day but am hoping that in time my skills, at least at not being so obvious, will develop nicely!

 Christine, going through all her gorgeous supplies...
 ...and her beautiful work



 Heather, very focused

 decisions, decisions


 The very lovely Ginny
 Trish taking some advice from Christine
 Heathers amazing penmanship and stitching

 "The place where i keep your heart" (in memory of my dad)

 Nichola's pocket


 Christine's very inspiring work

 Sue's work developing, love those french knots


 Melanie concentrating
 My "green, scented, apple pie" toe nails, not sure if i like it






 Ginny's fairy book


A fabulous time had by all.
Thank you to all the lovely participants and to Christine for her gentle tuition

Next workshop is with the very talented "Daisy Moon" on the 3rd October

Sunshine in the Workshop

As you may know work is progressing nicely on the workshop area, everything's sparkly and new.  I caught the sunshine bouncing off the wall in the corridor the other morning.



I love the reflection of the lace and flowers on the windowsil
I also managed to make some garland for the "schoolroom" workshop area, these are  different size circles cut from vintage school exercise books, complete with (as my friend Di says) 'red rantings'!



 ...and the two extra school posters i found


The corridor all finished, i think the lighting in the workshop room is perfect, it's instant daylight.

 I love the edison style light bulbs but will have to check the light source on these, they do seem a bit dark, but look fab.










Lizzie following the sunshine, i can barely see her on this, she blends in very well




 I love this dove, i took it from the shop stock, it's part of a christmas display, i think it's better here
 The stairs on the way up to the workshops, just needs a good wash now

Sarah Young Tea Towels, i'd like to get the full set

There are still places available on this years workshops see previous post

XOXO
