March catch up and invitation.

Busy, busy busy as we all seem to be, but here is a quick catch up on what's been going on…

On the 17th of February we celebrated our 35th wedding Anniversary with a casual get together with our friends.  Unfortunately my sister broke down on the M25 and had to be towed home so didn't make it.

 On Monday we are setting up at Art Van Go for Spectrum's exhibition.

I am a new member but have been invited to put in some of my work.

Hopefully there will be room for some of my cushions...

…and at long last I have finished this little piece.

Meanwhile I have been drawing goldfinches which we have lots of in our garden.

 And on my 'design wall' I have some hand dyed fabric and papers with an idea for an amaryllis inspired piece.  I want to do a bit of printing and stencilling before I begin.

I am coming to terms with the fact that I am a long term creator when it comes to finishing pieces, but that's fine. So this may be resolved next autumn!!

I spotted these two in the garden this afternoon - exploring the limitations of my phone camera, this is cropped quoted a bit, but the resolution is pretty good.

Shield bug and ladybird.

It would be lovely to see you at Art Van Go next Saturday for the Private View.  

Tea and cake will be served.

Otherwise, Art Van Go is always worth a visit so don't forget to pop into the exhibition while you're there.
