There is so much going on I don’t know where to start. It’s a busy time right now as we are starting new courses, finishing off others and planning the new programme. Our hall looks like the hold of a cargo plane!
So I’ll go with the bread and butter - the courses and show off some of the goodies our customers have made.
The creative people of Manchester came out in force for ‘Screen print your own t-shirt’ and there were lots of intricacy in the designs that I wasn’t expecting to be honest. I think I get very focused on getting all of the materials and forget about the end results. During a bit of hectic construction of craft knives, Nell (our lovely tutor) cut herself. Motto: do not injure your tutors, they are too precious! But she recovered and got everyone printing away and the nice thing… we had two male crafters amongst all those women.
In order of appearance: Tamzin, Shameema, Paul, Paul (in his t-shirt - a happy man) Lynsey, Lucy, John ( hard at work - sorry no final pic) and Alison
Intro to digital photography finished yesterday, much to the disappointment of Rik, my other half - no more playing with other people’s cameras for fun for a while. It sounds like the group got on like a house on fire and enjoyed the company of the Anne, the tutor with leopard print fashion tendencies! Thanks so much for all of the feedback - it was good to hear how much you enjoyed it and have some pointers to work on for next time. No photos to show for this one … surely that must be wrong?
And I haven’t forgotten the felters, but will update you on that after the weekend. I need to go and get creative … unfortunately only in the kitchen.
