hooray!
term has now really started, both boys are back at school, and William has had a great start to the term, lets hope it can last for at least a week!
But I will not bore you with more children related stories, I think it must get to be quite weary reading about it all the time, but at least it is positive today : ) And to be honest I feel quite positive about it all at the moment.
Right enough already!
Cushion covers, I have made three more!
the top and the bottom ones feature the last two pieces of the fabric we printed, and the middle one is great, I love it, it is so mad. But it does act as a partner to all of the covers I have made, which is the idea behind it!
So I have made all the covers, we are working on more ideas for prints, and so I hope to have some more stuff to show you next week.
But first, I have something else to do which is a bit scary!
From tomorrow, on a Thursday, for six weeks, I’m running a Creative Textiles course!!
I’m going to do teaching a morning and evening session for 90 minutes each session, and I will be teaching 15 lovely ladies how to make felt, and how to make an art/craft quilt!
I will try to write a bit more about it over the next few days, especially the second bit! I now have to sort out all my bits for tomorrow, wish me luck!!

Hi Alice,
have been catching up on your blog and i am so pleased that William has had a great start to the term.
I just wanted to say that after reading more about you… ii have come to the conclusion that you are pretty amazing….. things sound really tough at times but still you are so industrious and achieve so much and are brave enough to take on new challenges. Love the cushions …i especially like the printed fabric. Good luck for the courses… and enjoy the experience.

Ooo I like the top one best such summery blues and the print reminds me of hay blowing in a field – lovely! Best of luck with your teaching đŸ™‚

Gorgeous cushions and I do love the ‘mad’ one. Good luck with the teaching I’m sure it will go well.

You sound suddenly refreshed! Glad to hear. I bet the boys are equally excited for the start of something familiar, yet new.
