20 October 2012

Today would have been my baby brother's 58th birthday.  RIP Dave xx.  I started this blog in Dave's memory 4 years ago today in 2008.

Here's a quick look at the oak tree project  - 6 acorns which were from my brother's oak tree were planted on his birthday 4 years ago - two germinated and are alive and well and living in a plant pot on my decking.....

 Today I went to the Contemporary Quilters Yorkshire Branch.... and we did lino cutting - well, its not lino these days, but plastic.....
This was my little sample piece, mainly just to see how the tools work and have a go at cutting it. 

And this it my print on fabric - how fabulous is that?  I am very excited by this technique.  I can't believe I have had these tools for over 30 years and NEVER tried them before today.

I then had a go at printing on paper........
