Art Van Go

I've had such a lovely day at Art Van Go today that it didn't feel like work! I thought you might like to see some of the results of the students' hard work though. Jo put together some lovely colours and did all her preparatory stitching only to have problems with her machine so she couldn't stitch it all together but I thought the colours were so beautiful together. It will be fabulous when she manages to get it finished.

That said they all need to have some more stitching before they are finally complete but they are all looking good.

They were all beautiful and all so different which is what I love about a class like this. Fancy joining us next time? I'll be back at Art Van Go on April 3rd and June 13th next year!

When I got home I was treated to a lovely surprise. Julia had promised to send me some soap nuts but inside the parcel was this as well as some soap nut tea bags...

A novel about Havana which she had mentioned on her blog recently along with a CD of some Cuban music... perfect to transport me right back there! Unfortunately she couldn't work out how to send the Mojitos so I'll have to make do with a glass of wine tonight. After three days of teaching I feel like I deserve one. Thank you Julia.
