As you know Ive been trying to find better ways of communicating ... such an important thing, and so hard to get right. Well - Ive finally got my gallery website back up and running - so my work is visible online again. Its hard to believc its taken 3 years .. I can only say I'm always too busy, and it was yet another hard learning curve. <p></p><p>The new website offers an integrated blog - and thats eems to make sense to me. You can also access my social medie pages if you wish to, as well as the webshop, via the new website. And there are galleries of all my work ... so its everything in one place. I'll be using the blog there to talk about my work, old and new, art stuff, shows and exhibtions, workshops and online teaching, and anything else interesting and new. </p><p>So please come along and join me there. I think it will work a lot better - and I'm looking forward to being a better communicator!! - Hilary xx</p><p>Heres a link for the new blog </p><p>https://www.hilarybeattie.co.uk/blog</p><p>and new website </p><p>www.hilarybeattie.co.uk</p><p><br /></p>HilaryBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15410151165055470962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275887840403712824.post-80575908240355010582022-11-18T14:50:00.001+00:002022-11-18T14:50:59.076+00:00Gelli Printing Course<iframe width="480" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/iid_ZPxc4To" frameborder="0"></iframe>HilaryBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15410151165055470962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275887840403712824.post-29896932913246405532022-11-02T17:25:00.000+00:002022-11-03T11:44:34.131+00:00Gelli Printing: Learn just about everything!!<iframe width="480" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/Mpm6nyaIkvM" frameborder="0"></iframe>HilaryBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15410151165055470962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275887840403712824.post-18658042216310141982022-01-30T21:30:00.006+00:002022-02-02T11:17:27.323+00:00Breakdown Printing Workshop: Session 1 results<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/3lbO4xab3Qo" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">OOOh - maybe I can add a note!!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">So how on earth do we start on a 5 year catch up?? I’ve been
trying to think of the most important, or most interesting things to tell you
about. And of course, one stood out miles ahead of anything else. The dogs!!
What is the current dog situation? So, let's start there, although I promise
there will be lots of textile and arty stuff to come as well!!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEga2ABqtC1uC_7F6dLjgj6ysMJipi_oytbEOq1HxEvXKtFd5oIJsTe_pMR5KOGXys9s57K4n_dI5ugKTsdtUbMxWB-1r1Y2Q0nNvc948kIFkoBY3aPba1xqpP1kVTAxW9mlXh1TgqaETAb0JGcmT7f3OpFa1AzfoEBVBxL8l_hMslKAbCTNUYKUTKro=s1000" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="387" data-original-width="1000" height="163" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEga2ABqtC1uC_7F6dLjgj6ysMJipi_oytbEOq1HxEvXKtFd5oIJsTe_pMR5KOGXys9s57K4n_dI5ugKTsdtUbMxWB-1r1Y2Q0nNvc948kIFkoBY3aPba1xqpP1kVTAxW9mlXh1TgqaETAb0JGcmT7f3OpFa1AzfoEBVBxL8l_hMslKAbCTNUYKUTKro=w422-h163" width="422" /></a></div><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">It was strange seeing the last image and line of my final
post in 2017 – just before I started workshops at the studio here – because it
was my beloved Dixter. And he sadly isn’t with us anymore. He died in November
2019, after a brave battle with cancer. It was very late diagnosed, and we
tried operating – but it was too late. And as soon as I could see he was
suffering, I made the decision to let him go. He was a one off – and we loved
him so so much. But the sadness of losing them, is the only downside there is
to owning a pet. And for me, it’s so worth it, for all the joy they give in
between<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh1K8ehDE_Dz9qX8ST2PyuhjwC0tPAsO0EOxad7VwqksGabV-rmNaV5GSeByE7Wix8_MR1k1lsWagCMlXuhukajiVIvftn1HGaHuSZZ0lW53feOwzV_U7z8XOe35ykkq0HFOvfCCi0rHQIGAboTR0mLetW4BWqPKfydg66Lq7JDFdFJmpcnUwjU0Mb7=s2374" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1585" data-original-width="2374" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh1K8ehDE_Dz9qX8ST2PyuhjwC0tPAsO0EOxad7VwqksGabV-rmNaV5GSeByE7Wix8_MR1k1lsWagCMlXuhukajiVIvftn1HGaHuSZZ0lW53feOwzV_U7z8XOe35ykkq0HFOvfCCi0rHQIGAboTR0mLetW4BWqPKfydg66Lq7JDFdFJmpcnUwjU0Mb7=s320" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizSp4c8BUcExTT-L3WLIC6_FRENXYqFIN9Gh06IkUOZ5dQh1QfgCL3CtsRuGA1pFNrqdWVPPRh0R7z7K5CZnMmvGr5etZRy0Ql639xufhjw-Y4xqSsD9X46P1txnQ3hezo0JyUZgsLQfHsVjIBS2cmmjknKdV4KkfTzcNO-A_O2aOLEKdBBMKL9fVV=s3264" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2448" data-original-width="3264" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizSp4c8BUcExTT-L3WLIC6_FRENXYqFIN9Gh06IkUOZ5dQh1QfgCL3CtsRuGA1pFNrqdWVPPRh0R7z7K5CZnMmvGr5etZRy0Ql639xufhjw-Y4xqSsD9X46P1txnQ3hezo0JyUZgsLQfHsVjIBS2cmmjknKdV4KkfTzcNO-A_O2aOLEKdBBMKL9fVV=s320" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">But let’s move on from that sadness – because before he was
ill, we finally decided to get him some company. You may recall that we still
had Bala our lovely cat when we moved her and she and Dix were good friends. </p></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjaPWe_fcbupN28WX5HhpJszDb52oZqQEw-DpvIh28o5NlKr5y81ctQiBsQyG8oYwJBtUZNOokQpF6sWncu8RieWYJpiN1-n0mQzcNqc21vLlpoujmluQEvpKHQM08uiY66EkEZxNjE1VhCrs3y5WvVPB9yXlmgLXmR8wyky0dsNqxu31mA2xcHHnva=s1787" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1226" data-original-width="1787" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjaPWe_fcbupN28WX5HhpJszDb52oZqQEw-DpvIh28o5NlKr5y81ctQiBsQyG8oYwJBtUZNOokQpF6sWncu8RieWYJpiN1-n0mQzcNqc21vLlpoujmluQEvpKHQM08uiY66EkEZxNjE1VhCrs3y5WvVPB9yXlmgLXmR8wyky0dsNqxu31mA2xcHHnva=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">And after she died, we were
concerned that Dix was getting lonely. He sort of became a little withdrawn – isolating
himself even. We were doing all the usual humming and ha-ing: ‘would they get
on?’ ‘would the new dog bully our lovely but very gentle and timid Dix?‘ ‘should
we get a puppy or a rescue adult?’ ‘girl or boy?’ etc etc. If you’ve been there,
you will know all this. I’m a bit of a fatalist, so I kept thinking that if it
was the right thing, then fate would put a doggie in my path. And so she did. A
friend suggested I join a Bedlington Whippet Facebook group (that’s the lurcher
cross Dix was) – and I soon saw a gorgeous pup needing a new home. He was
living in a gypsy camp, and they didn’t want him </span><span style="font-family: arial;">☹</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> Only 3 months old – I wondered if he was just a bad hunter
or something. Anyway – who cares? Not me - - so I got in touch with the owner
and persuaded Stephen he would definitely love this new family addition. And he
did, we did, and all the students coming here for workshops did. Dixter was a
little wary ...</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjEc3OwXLWMvRqgzlmgJgQVhiWbTmtHX0cw_Vl6nzLSMMbZjYmmizF0KKkM8VHMiBxh88nUw2YvdSvsEDXpQXjD8eFdMVUK94fMAuL9VHvpWqZIsOlXTlt-h0ZKbCzy1zw040nIBVSc0ejh6QVaK-zIgTg7uuSWfVuPvlu27iBimE_LreSw27syGLUm=s1787" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1226" data-original-width="1787" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjEc3OwXLWMvRqgzlmgJgQVhiWbTmtHX0cw_Vl6nzLSMMbZjYmmizF0KKkM8VHMiBxh88nUw2YvdSvsEDXpQXjD8eFdMVUK94fMAuL9VHvpWqZIsOlXTlt-h0ZKbCzy1zw040nIBVSc0ejh6QVaK-zIgTg7uuSWfVuPvlu27iBimE_LreSw27syGLUm=s320" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"> but got over it quickly – and soon took the youngster under his wing. </p></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjS9nytutoMR5bOW7pC9KvgH9kjpM0aHRpDodBIlLMfcPScEAaPKee2ZwKHKAj4x48vZqjsNhcl-PU_Zcx80MRKCYOQNhM2rcS6RWRVttwW5yeURBSW0zoEquSVN0hgISrNCHOFZHsOhp8EzSOo6ftlWVP4kjNa98qguUni838jt8gUSqcStI6gi4r2=s2448" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2448" data-original-width="2448" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjS9nytutoMR5bOW7pC9KvgH9kjpM0aHRpDodBIlLMfcPScEAaPKee2ZwKHKAj4x48vZqjsNhcl-PU_Zcx80MRKCYOQNhM2rcS6RWRVttwW5yeURBSW0zoEquSVN0hgISrNCHOFZHsOhp8EzSOo6ftlWVP4kjNa98qguUni838jt8gUSqcStI6gi4r2=s320" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">We called him Milo – and he settled in with us quickly.

is notify people about workshops. I only ever seem to get a notice on Facebook –
and I am aware that not everyone will see that. So <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will link from YouTube – but I still don’t know

In fact it looks to have been when I was just starting up the studio here in Newport. Nearly 5 years ago 😲</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Do I have an excuse? Not a very good one I'm afraid. But it is a good reason. Simply time and complete overwhelming busyness. I have kept most of my interaction and posting on facebook for the last few years - its about all I've managed to keep going. But I do know its not everyones favourite platform, and it keeps altering it's faces and wa - which is annoying!! And I'm not convinced I'm actually talking to the people I want to anymore.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">So I've decided to get back here, where I can post images and videos, information and chat (plus a little gossip). And I can be sure they are being seen by those who would like to keep in touch with me, and what I'm doing. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">So - the next few posts should really be a good catch up I think!

Last week I was in sunny Llanidloes (the sun always seems to come out for us) teaching the Language of Flowers workshop for 3 happy days. Most of the students came on last years retreat as well - and 8 of us booked some holiday cottages together so we could extends the days happiness into the evenings</div>

The cottages are surrounded by hills and have residents ducks, chickens and dog .. total perfection</div>

So - day 1 was the one they were worried about - the drawing word. I never do anything scary, and I knew they were nervous - so we got stuck in and spent the morning following through simple exercises, designed to gently ease the students into drawing without them really realising it. The afternoon was then spent drawing flower images. Most of this group were determined they simply 'could not draw' - and yet ... this is what day 1 produced ...</div>

No apologies for the number of images - I had 14 students - and they were all so excited about their new found ability to draw(!) that they did LOTS of drawings. We also carried on in the evening after sharing a meal in a large barn at the cottage site (and feeding ducks and chickens)</div>

Day 2 dawned sunny and glorious and we were into making collage backgrounds for the flower drawings. All nerves had gone by now - told them they should have trusted me! And then on day 3 we looked at how to transfer the drawings onto their collaged backgrounds and thread stitch them. As ever with me it was a very full and full on 3 days ... and also as ever, the students rose to the challange magnificently. A few actually finsihed their thread sketches and lovely Brenda both mounted and sealed her peiece .. which was quite beautiful. So heres the work on day 3 ...</div>

Beautiful aren't they?</div>

I love it when I can give someone a belief and knowledge that they can do something they are convinced they can't - so this was a lovely workshop for me too. I could pick up the excitement as students realised that they could draw - and then realised what a wonderful thing to do it is .. very relaxing. I think I have sent 14 drawers out to draw their worlds now. Good job</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am tewachiuhng the Language of Flowers twice at the Bramble Patch in Weedon this year as well. Both are fully booked - but Anne does run a waiting list. I am also teaching it here in Newport next March (14,15,16) - and there are still spaces on that one. Visit the online shop and look under ';workshops' for more information.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm also going to teach a 2 day drawing course - for all of you who think you cant draw! We will start with simple exercises and you will gently move into drawing. We will then move onto drawing from photos and life, together with adding elements of colour to our drawings. Theses are new on the programme and the first one is on 10th and 11th July. Again look under workshops in the shop. In fact - here is a link</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a magical few days - and the students want a repeat next year .. they didn't have to twist my arm much at all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope to see some of you in Newport - back to decorating the studio now! - tanks for reading .. Hilary xx</div>

Unbelievably, it's only 2 weeks before the first workshop in
the new teaching studio - I think we shall have cake. The first session is Make
it Personal - the 2 days every other month option ... and session 1 will be on
using masks and stencils to make materials reflecting the students chosen
theme. This post shows you mine from a few years ago with my beloved tulips. </div>

This is a yearlong course which will help you to find your
own voice and style as an artist. Year 1 could also stand alone as a very
comprehensive course in surface design - we will cover making and suing
stencils and masks, making and using stamps and lino cutting, monoprinting,
collagraph printing and gelli plate printing; making and using rubbing plates,
and taking rubbings from life plus using other resists to get texture; screen
printing (my way) and designing and using thermofax screens: soy wax printing;
using mixed media to work back into work and then finally analysing your work
as a potential 'palette' of materials for your personal work. </div>

During this year
you will learn to use procion dyes, fabric paints, artists crayons and mixed media
to make unique materials. A small A4 size piece of work will be made at each
session to consolidate the techniques learned and how they might be applied.
Students will also be encouraged to keep sketchbook throughout the year to record
and try out their developing artists voice. By the end of the year, each
student will have 12 A4 pieces and at least one sketchbook of ideas and information.
The emphasis will be very much on developing a personal voice and style
throughout the year.</div>

Year 2, for those who choose to continue will move on to
elements and principles of design, drawing and painting for design and then
into developing larger finished works. Again - each session will have a piece
of work associated and students should complete 4 unique finished pieces of
art. These, together with the A4 pieces from year 1, and sketchbooks and design
work will be shown in a gallery at the Minerva Gallery<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>in Wales during May 2019. This
is a white walled gallery and will give students the opportunity to show off
what they have been doing, but also to experience preparing for a gallery show,
hanging and presenting work professionally, stewarding and the logistics of
exhibiting. It will also put their work in front of lots of interested people –
another useful experience for a new textile artist. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

Doesn’t that sound good? But I still have a couple of places
free on this course ... which I would love to fill. It’s my sort of ‘flagship’
course as it follows alongside my Make it Personal books and also reflects my
desire to bring out the inner artist in everyone. Of all my workshops – this is
the one I really want to be taken up</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
If you are having problems with the dates for a session,
email and talk to me. I have mentoring days which we can use to make up any
missed sessions … I have already done this with a couple of students</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
We have the perfect environment for you to learn and grow
here .. and small numbers of students will mean as much tutor input as you need
and opportunities to go completely off piste if you so wish!. Travel is easy to
Newport and there are lots of places to stay nearby. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Students who did the similar course a couple of
years ago are welcome to come again .. and will find it is updated and much
more comprehensive this time .. and will follow through into making and exhibiting
work. </div>

I so hope the last places book – but whether they do or not –
students already booked will be starting on what I hope might be a life changing
journey for them <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>in 2 weeks. I’d better
get back to painting their studio then! - Hilary xx </div>

The workshop programme has been live for nearly a week now
and is filling up nicely – thank you … <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
am very excited and so looking forward to them starting in June. A couple have
nearly sold out, so I will be looking to see if I can juggle things a little and
possibly re-run them. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />

I have however had
a few people feedback that paying for the whole year of Make it Personal up front
is prohibitive for them – which I can understand. So I have decided to offer a
staged payment option for the course – which will be 4 payments of £180 … one
on booking, and then one in Aug, Nov and Feb (trying to avoid Xmas!). I hope
that will help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />

I would still like your
commitment to the years course though – as it is designed so that each session
builds on all those before to really help you find your own language and voice
as an artist. I have run it before with some people doing the whole course and others
dropping in and out of some sessions and I felt that although we had a great
year, it meant that a lot of re-tracking had to be done each time for those
coming in new and the year long course became disjointed as a result. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think by keeping the same group working together
and progressing we will be able to develop each of you much more individually
and effectively – I hope that makes sense to you.<br />

The first year will add up to
being a very comprehensive study of multiple surface design techniques – always
geared towards a personal interpretation and giving students a huge variety of
ways to work into their themes and develop materials and ideas.</div>

We will
cover stamps (inclusing lino cuts, blocks and foam stamps), stencils,
monoprinting, gelli printing, rubbings, resist and soy wax resist,
screen pringing, thermofax printing all using a variety fo bases
(fabrcis and papers) and a variety of media (gelatos, crayons, pencilss,
fabric paint, dyes, dabbers, wax, molding paste and appliglue). Virtually all materials will be provided for this - you just need to turn up! -Examples of these are in the images in this post<br />

This will be
followed in year 2 (this will be in the next programme for 2018/19) with an
equally comprehensive study of the elements and principles of design, again
directed towards personal preferences. As we study each area of design we will
make pieces of work to practice application and leaqrn construction techniques and skills. Students will complete the year by
designing and making one (or more) large pieces of work, using all the skill
learnt during the previous months. If students wish – I will arrange a gallery
showing for these at one of the major textile shows<br />

I should have known I would need to change it! Following requests for weekend courses I have added one of the Make it Personal course as a Saturday option and also added some weekend workshops for those who work during the week. The picture above is of my own sketch books - and is the sort of thing we will be doing as part of Make it Personal<br />
<br />
So here is the new programme - I will remove the other so we cant get mixed up. Happy to send pdf or word file for you - just email - hilarybeattie@ntlworld.com<br />
<br />
Hope to see some of you here - Hilary x<br />

<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">These courses are designed to help you find your own voice
as an artist, initially through the preparation of materials in year 1 and then
in year 2 (will follow in 2018/19) studying design techniques and principles to
utilise these materials. In order to achieve this it is important that we build
a good relationship between tutor and student and also that you learn the full
variety of techniques.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For this reason
these courses are only available as block booking for the whole course</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

running for 12 days: One is for 2 days every other month (roughly) to enable
those farther away to travel. The other is for 1 day a month. I have listed the
bi-monthly ones in blue to avoid confusion</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Please also note that the day a month course is running

<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">These are days that you can utilise as you wish. You can
book a few or more! and work with me for several months on a project you have
planned, or book just one maybe to gain advice and help for a specific sticking
point in your work or to learn a new technique. We can cover any of the
techniques I teach and you will receive tuition and guidance to enable your
development as an artist</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Think
you can’t screen print? Think again. The first time I tried screen-printing, I
failed …. how?? Truly no idea – but it put me off for a long time. But the
happy truth is – it is REALLY EASY!! These three days will be spent having a
somewhat irreverent, but wonderfully creative examination of the many ways we
can use screens in creating personal cloth or paper</span></div>

really look in depth at the wonderful scope of monoprinting – including those
made using a gelli plate. Every mono print is a one-off, so there is no better
way to express a personal style. We will make a variety of textural and feature
prints, and then use these to develop a piece of work, either on canvas, or on
a felt backing</span></div>

rot and smell) and ways of preserving them if needed. We will also look at ways
of recording finds that are transient (the rotting fish) such as printing,
photographs and making lino cuts, stencils etc. Finally we will prepare canvas
or paper for your collections and look at ways of mounting and displaying them.

you will work to set yourself up with at least two books to play and colour in
this year. We will use a mix of papers and fabrics and look at variety of
binding methods – including a ‘wiro’ bind for which I have the machine! We will
then use your choice from the gelli plate, stencils, stamps or wood blocks to
set up pages for further play during the year. You could make your books themed
(eg a garden or holiday journal) or general – or both! No more ‘precious’ empty
books on shelves - just lots of well loved, colourful and inspiring play books</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The problem for me with my blog is simply that it takes along time to do it .. and I increasingly struggle to find that time. But making a video to explain - and show - what I have been doing is much faster. think the technical term for what I am doing - well going to do, might be vlogging? That is - a video blog. I have been making videos of work and techniques etc for nearly 6 months now - and sharing on my facebook pages. It is a really effective way of sharing information: fast for me, and hopefully clearer for you. So what used to take me half a day to photograph and write about on here, I can now do in a quick video. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did try t upload the videos from my files to here - but they were way too large. Until last week I worked out to put them on You Tube - which is easier to watch I think. The today I noticed a button on my youtube channel that says 'share on blogger' - so I hit it - and hey presto - the video appeared on here. So that opens up a whole new way for me to keep you up to date over here - even if you don't like Facebook or youtube. So - to test this out - I am uploading a series of videos that are about making these peiecs for 'Crossing Oceans' gallery in Russia in the Spring. It will take a few hours to get them all here - but then I would love some feedback as to how you find the process. I can also do direct videos on my webcam .. I will post one of those too so you can see what I mean. If this works - then you patient blog followers may at last get proper information. Heres hoping!!</div>

This last weekend I was leading a Stitch Retreat for lovely Nichola Keeble (http://stitchretreats.co.uk/) at Wyboston Lakes in Bedfordshire (well - I think it is in Bedfordshire .. other possibilities are Oxfordshire and Cambridgeshire). Whatever the county - it is a lovely spa hotel and we had a ball. Many of the group came on last years retreat (gelliping) and returned to work with the materials they had made. Then a few brave souls came in cold and hit the ground running - needless to say - they all did quite wonderful work. It was also a good social weekend - much chatting, laughing, late nights and bit of drinking ... so very perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So lets get some images ..</div>

embroidery, together with crayons and coloured pencils to finish them
off. They have PROMISED to send me images when they are complete and I will share them here and on facebook.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have opened a new facebook page just for worky stuff - like exhibitions, workshops, shop and work in progress. It's less manic than my usual page - so maybe those of you who don't really like FB might feel happier there? It is also where I will post news about the new studio I am converting at our new home in Newport, Gwent, and workshops running there. Here is a link:</div>

I can't remember whether I have told you here about the new shop?? It is all up and running and a lot easier to use. Several new products too - so do go and have a look</div>

Good news - well I hope it is good news ... there are a few spaces on the Spring Retreat I am running in May 2016 at the Minerva Gallery in Llanidloes, Wales. The retreat will coincide with a the exhibition 'Identity' by Art Textiles Made in Britain - and all in a stunningly beautiful area of Wales.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The retreat is entitled 'Sanctuary' and we will be making pages which incorporate the things/places/people/objects which bring you joy, comfort and peace. Yo<span class="text_exposed_show">u
can work on individual pages, or in a book, or on khadi or watercolour
paper, or canvas; you can use paper or fabric or both: you can stitch and
embellish with any ephemera or found objects you may have collected. You
can bind the pages, or mount them or make a hanging . or .... . the
point is you don't have to make all the decisions at once .. that so
often stops us doing anything. We will be printing and painting on day
1, then working up pages for the remaining two days. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="text_exposed_show">Following are some ideas of things you might try:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span class="text_exposed_show">Some fabric pages .. using prints I have made of a crab found on the beach - a definite sanctuary place for me. Not sure how I will finish these yet .. may mount on canvas; may make some more an bind together as a book or I may make a soft wall hanging with them ..</span> I can think about it whilst I stitch them </div>

I have just made these pages, using gorgeous leaves I have picked up - collecting treasure is another form of sanctuary for me - again, still to decide what I will do with them - they are on khadi - so lots of options</div>

in this case I decided to mount them as a possible finished page - I shall probably put this on canvas after adding some stitch. I made three backgrounds so I can make a set</div>

there again - maybe you would like to prepare a books worth of pages to work with - these are khadi paper coloured with neocolour 1 crayons and dye .. they started as a pack of A5 in two weights. I tore the end off each and then used that to make a spine for the page. These can now be worked into and bound when you are ready</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I first saw them in February when visiting the trade show at the NEC with my friend Steph (this is a very dangerous place to visit alone .. take a sensible friend ... I haven't got any so I went with Steph). Anyway - saw theses and immediately thought they had a potential for use in place of neocolour <b>2 (not 1)</b> - in bold because they are so easy to mix up .. and that is the point ... you know I love neocolour <b>1 </b>for rubbings, drawing, sketchbook work, and on finished work, canvas etc etc. For me they are the essential one of the two neocolours, so I avoid neocolour <b>2</b>, as they look exactly the same once the wrappers off (about 10 seconds in my case). But I would still like a watersoluble crayon of some sort .. tried inktense bars and they are lovely (I got the biggest set to check this) .. but they are very messy on the paws; tried the pencils .. but too fine really for what I want; tried artbars - again lovely, but messy on the hands too; watersoluble pencils - lovely but again too fine. So (I am getting to the gelatos - honest) I saw these and thought they looked very promising. My sensible friend said - oooh - yummy - I would deffo get those - so I did. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Then all my wheels fell of (pneumonia, house move, eye falling out, and car vandalism to name just the major players) .. and I had no chance to trial them out properly until recently. But when I did - ooh-er .. they do just what I wanted and so much more - my favourite type of tool - a multi tasker ..</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">So - what do they do? ..</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">They are wonderful when you are out and about and want some transparent colour to wash in your sketchbook - either as a base, or over images already made .. even I quail at the thought of carrying pots of liquid dye in my sketch bag ..</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">These above are all done either onto plain pages, or over other bits in my sketchbooks and once the gelato and water are dry, they are ready to work back in to. You may have noticed that you can sometimes see the lines made where I have laid the gelato colour on the page .. like this:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">this is red gelato being washed out with a paint brush and spritzed water .. I have found that the marks do not wash away completely on most papers .. you can use this as a feature, as here, where I have lets the marks act as a vague outline on the pages .. I like this use a lot</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">or you can use another page as a palette .. like this:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">or if you don't want the marks of the palette in your book - then you can use deli paper as a palette - just take a few sheets in your travelling kit - this pear on fabric was done like that .. and of course I have kept the deli paper to use with it. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Deli paper gives up virtually all of the colour so is really good as a palette for the gelatos</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">They are also handy for 'inking' little stamps whilst on the move .. just rub the stick (take lid off ..) over the stamp, give it a quick spritz of water and stamp .. it's a gentle impression .. but very useful ..</span></div>

So then you can do this : washing gelatos over fixed gelatos .. how multi task is that??</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I have not tried these through the washing machine yet - I will and let you know. A gentle hand wash will be fine though as the gelatos are sealed with acrylic medium. They are still quite soft enough to stitch - and I shall get doing that next</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I have only really scratched the edges so far with these and am planning some time to play some more and see what else they will do . But I am totally convinced they are a great addition to my tool kit .. colour rich and versatile .. plus in a nice case for messy bods like me .. perfect.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I took them to the NEC to demonstrate and sold out of all sets ... but I've just got some more and put them in the online shop. I was going to wait until I had the new shop ready to launch ... but that may be a while yet!! so I've put them in the old one .. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here is a quick step by step .. just showing a drawing, palette and wash, then going back in again to add some more colour </span></div>

I am so not capable of writing a short sharp blog post. I get so excited when I am sorting the photos and I want to show you EVERYTHING .. plus a few extra ideas as well. It's the same when I am teaching and is probably why students look a bit punch drunk by the end of the day. And if I could I would give them audio tapes to get a few more thoughts and ideas in overnight ... now that is a thought .. hmm </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So in that spirit we will carry on with images of cloths and paper printed at Festival last week. Last post was using the gelli plate with natural items to create beautiful detailed prints (which then got splattered with lots of extra colour - another thing I can't help). It is my favourite way to gellip - but the plate also does loads of other lovely things .. it is so soft, any texture comes up beautifully. These few were done with a small off cut of foam board - just marked into the plate, then printed and overprinted - I love this - the marks are so gestural and personal. </div>

DO you remember my lovely potato masher (I now have a few)? Shaped like a daisy (no idea why that helps with the spuds) - I finally got it onto the gelli this show - together with a couple of other mashers .. great marks and would be great cloth to use in backgrounds etc</div>

my favourite poppy was this one, which I bodged up by leaving another stamp under the cloth when I printed .. but in fact I love the diagonal element it has given. Not something I would have done myself (if you know me, you will know I find diagonals all a bit too racy) .. but it has lifted this print .. fate often knows best and I shall try and remember and learn .. </div>

Most of the show was dedicated to gelliping - and all these techniques and alot more are covered in some depth in my book 'The Gentle(ish) Art of Gelliping' - the 'ish' is because I am not sure it is gentle the way I do it ... but it could be (I think). Truly - if you have a gelli plate and haven't got this book, you are almost certainly not getting the best out of it ... even though I say so myself. It is almost certainly the only book you will ever get that has an accidently unfinished sentence. I plan to have a competition to try and guess what it should have said when we have sold half the books .. with one of the pieces from the book as a prize .. so watch out for that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Sunday however - I did allow myself to play with my lovely stencils a bit too - always a really quick and easy way to make unique cloth to go with your prints - or for anything else come to that. Here are just a few ..</div>

stencilling and over stencilling with paint and then flooding with dye gives such depth to the finished pieces. Stencilling and stamping, pus other surface design techniques are covered in my first book 'Make it Perosnal'. I am getting into my last few boxes of this - so if you haven't got it .. you might want to order soon...</div>

<span style="color: black;">I tell you - four days demonstrating a gelli plate produces ALOT of prints! I decided only to photograph </span><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;">the ones I had dyed over - but I've still got shed loads. So I'm going to split this post in two - </span></span><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;">just the first 50 today</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: black;">So here we are - gelli prints from Festival of Quilts .. such a wonderful tool and you can do amazing things with it. These are a selection of leaf prints and backgrounds to go with them - the first half on paper (a mix of khadi, deli and cartridge papers) and the next lot on fabric .. I like to print on a variety of surfaces as it gives me a more varied palette of materials to work with. Materials form demos are always particularly interesting as I try to use lots of different colours to show people how they work together and as resist. So a bright bunch ....hope you enjoy them</span></span> </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
I love Festival of Quilts .... I am always completely shattered afterwards, but it is so worth it .. nowhere else will you see so many, or such a wide variety of 'quilts' ... almost too much to take in. This was the third year I had my own stand, which gets so busy it is hard to get away to look at the quilts. The last two years I have failed totally, so this year I was determined to at least try and fly round to spot some favourites. I am sure I didn't get to all the galleries .. but I loved Christine Chesters' collection about Dementia which were just down from me, and Quilt Arts and Through Our Hands galleries also looked exciting and also just down the aisle that led me to coffee, so I managed to catch them. It was also a joy to finally see all the work (including my own) in the Crossing Oceans Gallery. This has already appeared at several venues abroad, but it was the first time I have actually seen the work in the flesh. Of course I didn't have my camera with me,at the time, but if you go to the groups facebook page: (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Crossing-Oceans-Textile-Artists/1444364839182803?ref=hl), you will see images of the works - which are now going on to France and then Russia. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So this selection comes with the huge caveat that I certainly didn't do a thorough trawl and no doubt missed some other treasures. But these are the quilts that stood off the walls for me:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This beautiful work is called 'My Lady' and is by Susan Orchin. Fabulous sensitive painting and exquisite quilting - I especially loved the feathers down the spine. For once I was in full agreement with the judges who awarded this 1st in Art Quilts </div>

Some colour now - and a long title: 'The last show of glorious sunlight before the rest that night time brings' .. this is by Jill Brennan and got a Highly Commended certificate .. I love it</div>

Given how much I love colour, I am surprised by how yet another black and white piece caught my eye amongst so many. But this 'Silence' by Jean McLean was another that stopped me in my tracks. This got a Judges Choice in Art Quilts ... I keep agreeing with the judges - they might ask me to be one if I carry on .. ok - perhaps not</div>

Of course one has to visit Fine Art Quilt Masters to have a really good chunter and disagree with judges .. but there are always some you love too - and this was one such for me. Called 'Sharon & Co' and by Anne Smith I just loved it</div>

Really hard to take a good image of this .. when I saw it originally in the catalogue I didn't get it at all - but in the flesh it really resonated for me, with my love of the coast. Some artists are very worried about showing images of their work before an exhibition - but this sort of proves the point that seeing them in reality is a totally different experience</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I couldn't take photos in Through our Hands - but I loved Jette Clovers 'Footnotes' series. I was also taken aback by the feeling that flowed out of Jenni Duttons 'Dementia Darnings' Again - I had seen images of these and admired them .. but was unprepared for how the over-stacking of simple handstitches spoke so strongly of the love of the daughter and the increasing fragility of her mothers mind .. very powerful. I have borrowed an image from Jenni's website 'Mum with Red Scarf' - do visit and see the others (http://www.jennidutton.com/dementiadarningscontents.html), and if you have a chance to see them in reality do grab it </div>

This was part of the EQA gallery and reminds me of a piece by John Piper which I cannot for the life of me now find .. but which I loved. I would have bought this one home if it had been for sale - best in show for me . </div>

It is SO annoying when you mess up a piece that you like and has been going well - really really annoying. So much so that it is tempting to stay safe and not risk something you are not sure about. But then this would mean you never grow and find new ideas - and most cock-ups can be recovered ... ask me how I know!! So in that spirit .. </div>

Hopefully you remember this piece from an earlier blog post? - we left it blocking on the design wall many weeks ago - and that is where it has stayed until the last week, when I finally got it off the wall and transported to Wales with me. It looks quite vibrant in the image, as it is till wet, but when it dried, the images had been knocked back quite a bit from all the stitching, and needed the imagery pulling out again. So out with the neocolour 1. These are water resistant (unlike neocolour 2), so I can use them secure in the knowledge that they wont start running when I seal this piece with matt medium. The set below are actually called 'portrait' - but to my mind they are just perfect for my coast piece</div>

Maybe I should have bound and mounted this at this point ... but I felt it was still just too flat for me (i know I know ) .. and the other pieces in this series had appliqued grasses around the edges before mounting. This would also have worked on here, but having done it twice, I was bored of that idea (more I knows) .. so decided to try something different. I had some more images taken on the day, of bare branches and skeletal grasses (it was Christmas Day)</div>

and had a good look at things ... hmmmm ... delicate grasses completely overpowered and branches looking very thorny and actually a bit sinister and dominant ... oh. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At this point, I was completely uncertain what to do next - if anything - and frankly, very pissed off too - so left it for a couple of days. Came back and confirmed for myself that I needed to knock back those branches - a lot. Now you may not agree - and it is easy in this situation to spend days agonising over what others might think, especially when you have become a little uncertain yourself. But I always say when teaching that it does not matter at all what anyone else thinks - only yourself .. and this piece was no longer about Sanctuary for me - it had mixed messages. Another option would have been to keep it for a different theme - maybe one looking at danger and safety; security and insecurity .. but I wanted this to be a happy piece about a lovely day - so I got out my branch altering kit ..</div>

Well - here I am in Wales .. Swansea, South Wales to be precise. Hilary (another one with a lurcher) pointed out that I hadn't really updated on here about that .. and she is completely right. I have probably talked more about the move on facebook, but not kept us fully in the picture here on the blog. Mea Culpa and I shall now make recompense. That above is the view from the back of our rented house ... need I say I am happy??</div>

Job changes for Stephen meant that we had to move from Lincoln to Wales at rather short notice. We seem fated to make moves like this - but the time scale and distance of this move meant that we had to rent in the short term .. only practical solution. We went out for supper with our new neighbours last night, and as they said - we have really rather fallen on our feet (paws) here. WE are in Uplands - the area of Swansea where Dylan Thomas was born (I keep saying Bob Dylan - but that is just menopause and age). It is a quite fascinating city and this area is a wonderful place to live. Everything you could want close by, cafes, shops, museums, galleries, stunning parks and of course - that beach </div>

I have an exhibition with Steph Redfern in the summer, coincidentally at the Minerva Gallery in Llanidloes .. which is called 'Sanctuary'. I have some of the work already made, but will be adding more: this place is a sanctuary for me - a place of beauty and safety when all else is change .. and I want to include some of these views and blues .. I'll keep you informed ..</div>

All were batched (kept damp) in plastic bags overnight and then rinsed and machine washed the next day. I knew the old dyes would leach a little - especially in a hot machine wash - but I wanted the colours paler - and was really pleased with my results</div>

You will see these appearing in my sanctuary work in due course. This was a very un-technical and rough screen dyeing session - but I got great results just the same - and it was FUN. I say this to encourage you to just have a bash and see what happens. If your dyes become liquid - well just go with that blobby look .. if they are old and faded - either utilise that or overdye ... and screens are just a great way to get marks on cloth - try them. You will also notice mine are mostly not taped up with duck tape. I just got bored of doing it really. I now have some metal screens that don't need it anyway - and the wooden ones will rot eventually .. but so what? They will do a good year or so - and they are not very expensive - I will just replace when they really won't play any more.</div>

So - I am keen to get on with my coast based Sanctuary pieces - but first I had a couple of Bulrushes pieces to collage and stitch. These are to go to France for the Quilt en Sud exhibition with Crossing Oceans International group ... here they are collaged and just about ready to stitch. I will show you more of that process next time</div>

<span style="color: black;"> Like most of us I suspect, I am forever saying I will make time to play
and experiment, but then work that needs doing and has deadlines attached
takes over, and it never happens. So this year I am determined to make some time to try out some new things and mess about. It is important for health and I am certain helps you grow as an artist. So ... I watched a DVD featuring collage artist Jane Davies last week, and I was fascinated with one of her processes for making an abstract piece. She started with an under painting and then used both papers and paint to produce her work. I really fancied giving that a go, so yesterday afternoon, I made myself stop '</span><span style="color: black;">proper' work and have an hour or so to play.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Hadn't got time to wait for a canvas to dry, so I found one I had wiped some old yellow and green paint from a roller on to (very much like I do in my sketchbooks - blank canvas can be just as intimidating). Horrid colours, but I just filled in the gaps with some blue and white - which gave me this (below). </span></div>

As per Jane's advice I simply tried to focus on values and contrasts and 'go with the flow' .. probably should have broken out the gin ... I am no more comfy with that kind of instruction than I imagine most of you are - but I was on my own, no-one could see and my materials were cheap and abundant - so I just tried to imagine being 5years old and got on with it</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I also followed the movement of the under painting - which was very up and down in straight lines - very logical - so I threw both a couple of doughnuts and some high contrast black at things </div>

Jane suggests getting the paint out before you finish the collage - so like a good girl I did. I chose colours already in the piece and filled in spaces a bit. Firstly deepening and brightening the blue at the bottom and covering some of that awful green </div>

Covering the awful green seemed like a good plan - so I did some more of that top right and then got out some glorious red and splobbed it about </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I put these images on to facebook yesterday and asked what (if anything) these collages suggested to others. By this stage - they were definitely suggesting something to me. I was fascinated by peoples thoughts - how they differed and yet I could see the germ of all of them in my mind on the day it was done. Some saw Paris/France - in the light of the weekends awful events there - not my intention or in my conscious mind - but like most, I was appalled by what occurred, so maybe my seemingly random choice of colours was not so random after all? Someone else suggested bustle and play .. not conscious but almost certainly ever present with me. Transport and trains was another suggestion - which I can see, although hadn't ... but I am very drawn to 1950's poster art and have a couple of books of transport posters - so maybe an influence there? City Life and a bicycle in the city - I can see both and love them .. although not what I found. What I love is all the different things seen. I have always felt a bit inadequate viewing abstract art, as I so often just don't see what the artist sees and feel I am letting them down by seeing something different. This has made me feel quite differently. I love that people all see what means something to them .. and as I had nothing in mind when I started - that's fine. If everyone saw it the same - then maybe I would have been veering back towards representational art? Interesting isn't it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I saw boats - specifically fishing boats at Whitby- some glossy and new ... some peeling and battered.. maybe predictably as that theme is on my mind. Although I had determined in my mind that this would NOT be a coast piece - as that would add pressure and stop it being play ... it obviously felt differently.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't think it is finished yet - and I am intrigued with trying to work forwards with all four orientations ..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More about that another time - for now - this is the way up it was assembled ... with a nice clean mat surround. I hope I've encouraged some of you to do something similar - just have a go at something you fancy and see where it takes you. As long as you enjoy the time and process - you can;t lose - Hilary xx</div>

So firstly, a very Happy New Year ... 2014 shot past at a very scary, but frequently exciting pace .. I am hoping to hold 2015 back a little .. hmmmm. This piece (below) was made a couple of years ago for the CQ journal quilt challenge - but it is such a January and New Year quilt, I wanted to share it again. I really hope 2015 brings everything you hope for and let's all make it one that counts shall we?<br />

So - back to work. Funny Christmas break here, as we finally got confirmation about Stephens new job - which is going to be on the South Coast of Wales. To all you travelling bods, that won't seem too far - but for a home loving creature like me - that is another country and quite scary. Luckily many friends on face-book turn out to be from around there and have assured me it is not only safe, but stunningly beautiful. We will be based around Bridgend - which is close to the coast .. and that couldn't be better . I love the sea with a passion and simply can't believe I am going to be able to live so nearby a beautiful coastline. So we are all ready for Wales - I just hope poor Wales is ready for me!!</div>

No doubt you will hear more on this subject(!) - but right now I wanted to share these prints done at Harrogate with you.I was demonstrating with my gelli plates (yes - I now have a few!) and promoting the new book. I was using leaves from a specially purchased (and transported all the way to the show) potted palm tree, in conjunction with some of my stencils.</div>

The palm generously provided different leaf sizes, which together with different sized gelli plates (3 x 5; 6 x 6; 7 x 5 and 8 x 10) gave me a lovely selection of prints like these below</div>

I was also using a variety of materials to print on: plain copy paper; deli paper; khadi paper and two thicknesses of fabric - giving even more variety for me</div>

I've kept some prints with white backgrounds, but most got overdyed to produce this gloriousness ... if that doesn't inspire you to want to get creating .. you are a harder to please beast than me!!I want to eat them. </div>

The smaller plates are also great as you can pick them up and apply them like a stamp to paper - which is what I have done here, on light weight khadi paper </div>

It was a great show and I met many old and made many new friends. I am not sure how I will manage the shows once in Wales - especially one as far away as Harrogate ... but I shall definitely try and find a way ... I just love them and Harrogate always has that special place in my heart, as I grew up there - and Jo and I need to live in Bettys again!. </div>

I will be at the NEC in March at ICHF 'Fashion, Embroidery and Stitch'. For those who don't come as they feel this is not a very textile arty show - do come and see. It has grown enormously and now has all your favourite names - Art van Go, Kim Thittachai, Stephanie Redfern, Colouriscious, Oliver Twists and many many more will be there. Fabulous galleries and displays and wonderful shopping opportunities. I am showing a new exhibition called 'Coast'. Poignantly, this will be a chance to celebrate the lovely north eastern coast I have loved, before moving to a new coastline. I'll tell you more about that next time - but please note it in your diary - 19th - 22nd March 2015. </div>
