At last I have plucked up enough courage to start a blog. I tried a static web site ( you don't want to know) and really wanted somewhere to show my work, and keep friends and potential friends aware of demonstrations, workshops, and life in general.
My daughter Jade tried to make me have a fancy blog with 'skins'..... I am fairly computer illiterate, so am non the wiser.
As usual I am procrastinating, as I have samples to organise to demonstrate tomorrow at the 'Fashion, Embroidery and Hobbycrafts Show' at the show ground in Harrogate. I will be using the new unmounted stamps I have designed for DUO DESIGNS, and am looking forward to meeting new and old friends.
I will be accompanied by master blogger Chriss, so hopefully I can pick her brains on the journey there and back.
I returned yesterday from Dundee, where I was doing a demonstration for Pebeo. I met some lovely people, but am feeling a little tired after all that driving etc.
Am looking forward to the next few weeks, as am travelling to Norwich, Hull, Leeds, Gloucester, Bristol, Dunston and Gateshead as well as doing a workshop next Saturday at Hexham..... did I mention that the plasterer is coming to sort the mess left by some cowboy builders this Thursday and Friday which necessitates dismantling my studio, the computer room and my bedroom.
In a very full house this will be chaos to say the least !!!!!
I must say for a first attempt it was very easy and straight forward to set this up, and as a person who nearly always has something to say about something, I think I could get used to this.
Watch this space....... I might even get Jade to give me the idiot's guide to including pictures.
