Well it's back to school time in our house this week! Some of us are smiling more than others!
I'm aware I have been a bit more silent than usual on my blog recently. I prefer to keep the majority of my blogs about creative things, and as I haven't made much recently, there hasn't been much to blog about!
This is the first summer I have worked right through. The classes have been well attended and great fun, and it's been lovely getting to know some new folks too.
But now it's admin time, getting ready for the new term of classes and projects which start next week (you can get the full list of classes here).
This will mean lots of pattern writing, as well as testing new patterns and ideas for the 2013 programme (which usually comes out after Hallowe'en).
And I'm not the only one who has been industrious this summer. Shannon, my eldest daughter has been beavering away on her fimo creations, and has some new stock in her Etsy shop, some of you quilters might want to have a peek at!
Quilting row markers! |
She returns to school tomorrow, so won't be able to take custom orders during term time, but she will still be keeping the shop stocked up in fimo goodness!
Well, I will be posting about some new bee blocks for September over the next few days. I might even get something made!
I hope my international friends are staying safe from bad boy Isaac, and that those closer to home are enjoying the last official week of summer!
Shannon obviously has her mother's creative streak. She has a good business there. Hope the return to school goes well. I don't like it when mine go back. Di x
