Off to Singleton for Portuguese Whitework

Sorry for my silence lately. I have been rather snowed under with preparation for classes of all kinds (ones I am teaching and ones I am learning from!) and travel. I have to start preparing for the upcoming Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair too, because that is fast bearing down upon me!

When you wake at 2am and your mind goes into overdrive, you know you have too much happening. But unfortunately the only way I can reduce some of that is to get it done!

First things first: tomorrow I am off to Singleton in the Hunter Valley to teach a Portuguese Whitework class tomorrow and Wednesday. We’ll have a lovely time, I am sure. I have visited the Embroiderers’ Guild group in Singleton before, so it will be great to visit them again! While I am gone, the office will be unmanned, so if you place an order in the next day or so, I will attend to it on my return. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

The next big outing after the Singleton class is the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair, 12th-16th of June, at Darling Harbour. I will again be exhibiting in Stand L42, which is the same number as last year, so I expect it should be in the same place as last year! I’d love you to come and visit me. I am planning to have some of the projects from my next whitework book on show. (Ooooh! Letting the cat out of the bag!)

There is so much to prepare for, as well as continuing with writing books etc. If only I didn’t feel so harried and stressed… 🙁 So much to do, way too little time! I must remember to get enough sleep, as that will definitely help. 🙂
