A great day at the Shedio

It was a delight to be back at the Shedio after the Christmas break.  Brenda was back, having completed her first term at UEA.  I was able to give her the pram blanket I had made for her son and daughter-in-law, and the peacock colour, and peacock print lining went down well.

We were working into photos and postcards as media for artwork.  I had photographed some of Aunt Joan's artefacts and stitched into them, as inspired by some artists at the Jerwood prize.  So I cross stitched appropriate colours around  the Woods of Windsor soap, chain stitched the pattern over the jumper, and put a blanket stitch picot edge on the sampler.  I did not get round to working into the book photo.  Neither did I get round to photographing the stitched photos - and they are now part of my work displayed for assessment.
