I had a WONDERFUL time in Adelaide at Beating Around the Bush. Enjoyed the class, and market day, and loved hearing Jenny Adin-Christie<\/a> last night at the gala dinner. <\/p>\n

I really enjoyed spending time with the other tutors, socialising and talking shop. I was just a little overawed to meet some of the international tutors such as Betsy Morgan<\/a> from USA, and Trish Burr<\/a> and Hazel Blomkamp<\/a> from South Africa – what gorgeous ladies they are! I shared a room with Tanja Berlin<\/a> from Canada, and we had great fun together. And of course it was lovely to spend time with some of the other Australian tutors as well, such as Marg Light, Alison Snepp and Julie Graue. (None of them have websites, so I can’t give you links.)<\/p>\n

The students in my Mountmellick embroidery class were a fantastic bunch – really great work was produced. We also shared hints and tips amongst us, including ones that the students had learnt from other teachers earlier in the week. They loved the thread the needle with a piece of paper<\/a> one that I showed them.<\/p>\n

The market day went really well: I launched my new book, Portuguese Whitework<\/a>, and got back to my stand to find it absolutely crowded with ladies wanting to purchase the book. \ud83d\ude00 It was so nice to hear feedback from happy customers who already own some of my books, throughout the day. One lovely lady said “thank you for all you do for us, with your books” – what a nice thing to say to someone! <\/p>\n

Thanks to Sally and Fiona and the rest of the team from Country Bumpkin<\/a> for organising such a wonderful event!<\/p>\n

If you’ve rung me or placed and order since Monday, these will be attended to next week. I apologise for the delay caused by my absence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
