When it was very cold just before Christmas I took this photo of a frosted corkscrew hazel. There is a quilt in there somewhere!

To let you know about some new courses for this year to be held in Ipswich at the WI headquarters in Ipswich, Suffolk:

14th & 15th July 2011 Screen printing - we will be experimenting with varoius types of screen priniting to produce some original works of art.

27th & 28th April 2011 Image transfer - we will experiment with several different types of image trnsfer and use collage techniques to build up a stitched collage picture which is what I used in my award winning quilt in August!

2nd - 5th August 2011 Machine Embroidery Summer School. We will learn lost of new techniques and refresh some old ones so the you go home with both lots of samples and some finished peieces of work. Design ideas will also be covered.
