The last of my family members returns to school today for the new school year, so the house will be quiet again.<\/p>\n
Apart from spending a lot of time with the family, particularly dressmaking with The Reader, I’ve been working solidly on embroidery for the book during the school holidays. I’ve written an article for a magazine, and am currently working on another one.<\/p>\n
I don’t think I actually ever updated you to let you know that happily my sewing machine was fixed soon after Christmas. It is lovely to have it back in working order again. I was so pleased that I didn’t have to buy a new one – I would have tried to get a second hand one, anyway, as I believe the older ones are better.<\/p>\n
Over the next few months I’ll be working hard to finish the book I am currently working on, so that it is hopefully ready for publication during the middle of the year. And then the plan is to get stuck into the next book – whatever that might be!<\/p>\n
Today I need to get my head back into “work” gear, and start putting working routines back in place. Not sure that is going to go so well just yet. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I need to get some more photography done for the book over the next few weeks, so I’ll also need to get my brain into a photography space and starting “seeing” again. I find that it takes time to get back to the place where good photographic composition happens. I always find that photographing small things is much easier than photographing large things, and the things I need to photograph next are large ones.<\/p>\n
I hope your week is going well, and is filled with creativity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
