Inspirations



I have always loved History, Literature and Art.........................................................................................................
beautiful things, the stuff of dreams..................................................

flowers, butterflies, fairy tales, embroidered fragments, Chinese blues, Botticelli angels, Blake's visions, Burne-Jones pictures............................................................................................

amongst many other hints and wisps of the past..........................

to catch in my net and weave into mydesigns..................

which I hope others might find as beautiful as their inspirations.

Creative day with Vicky Trainor.co.uk !!!!

Spent Wednesday with one of my old (young!!!!) lecturers, who has set up her own business producing beautiful wedding cards and accessories. Vicky has been in the card industry for over 15 years as well as having lectured before her new venture. She now works from home designing stationery, recycling lovely old embroidered textiles (for her vintage drawer range) and now running classes and mentoring small businesses.

I signed up for a fifties workshop but that was postponed so went to 'natural forms' instead! Whilst my work wasn't the best it was good to lift a paint brush after such a long time away from creating.
