The next Material Girls exhibition is over the May Day weekend a little disappointing that its only three days, the venue Essex Wildlife Trust Ingrebourne Valley has a huge foot fall so fingers crossed if we have good weather it should be a good exhibition. I don't usually show my work in full before the exhibition but on this occasion I thought I'd treat you!

Easter Monday we were treated by my nephew David and his wife to afternoon tea, it was our Christmas present it took us a while to use the voucher. It was well worth the wait, we really enjoyed a lovely relaxing afternoon.
The second Friday of every month one of the Material Girls is artist in residence at National Trust Rainham Hall April was my first time, I took along the group project we are working on. A few members of the public sat down and joined me in stitching a hexagon, I enjoyed chatting with the visitors and talking about our work exhibited in the rest of the house.
Taking a bit of a break from stitching I'm trying to make a whole in my yarn stash by crocheting a blanket, the basket of yarn doesn't seem to be getting any smaller though.... oh well back to hooking!
Its all looking wonderful Miriam, so busy.
ReplyDeleteI'm here Miriam!
ReplyDeleteYour work is looking beautiful as always and your afternoon treat looks delicious.
I'm here too! Your work looks great, such a shame I couldn't make the exhibition to see it in the flesh. Good luck on your making your stash smaller, have you heard of the Spice of Life blanket? Pattern on Ravelry plus there is a FB group.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diane, never heard of the spice of life blanket I'll look it up!
