I've been a bit busy ......

…… which is, obviously, my preferred pace of life! A big thank you to everyone that came to see me at The Scottish Quilt Show a couple of weeks ago. Especially all those ladies who have signed up for my Colour Play class at Region 13 (Quilters Guild) Summer School in June and just stopped by to say hello. I’m going to be teaching a class of 20 how to screen print with limited access to water, it’s going to be fun if a bit chaotic!

Thank you also to Bolton Textile and Stitch Group for inviting me to talk to them this week. It’s always nice to visit a large and thriving textile group and I enjoyed all the questions and chats after the presentation.

Looking ahead, I will be giving another talk at Salford Museum and Art Gallery on Saturday 13th April at 1pm. This one will focus on the coal mining pieces in my solo exhibition and I’ll be inviting people to share their memories of the mines in Salford and the surrounding area. You can find more details here. The event is free and no booking is required. The Museum is well worth a visit and you can usually park right outside at the weekend.

And looking further ahead I have just received confirmation that I will be teaching two 5-day workshops in Colorado, US in September 2025. I will also have a solo exhibition at the same venue. Super excited about this. More details to follow later in the year.

And the cherry on the icing on the cake - Storm 1 (Jagged), above, will be going to its new home in a few days.

Happy days, x
