Hello Fellow Stitchers,
My 2013 teaching year has been a non-stop stitch-fest. Apart from my regular, weekly classes at Mt Eliza Needlework and Bustle & Bows, I was rewarded with a few wonderful getaways.
February saw me in Hobart, teaching with Mary Anne and the girls at A Stitch in Time. In April, I was in Brisbane at Kerryn Lightfoot’s Allthreads Sit & Stitch week-end. Thank you Ladies for a happy time.
July took me to Brisbane again. This was my 11th year teaching at Koala Conventions. Full workshops, old friends, new students, fun times and great camaraderie. I always love going here and this year was no exception.
In September, I spent a delightful week with Robyn Alexander of Colourstreams indulging myself with her lucious silk threads, velvets, wool felt and her ubiquitous sequins. Fun, laughter, trips to Byron Beach, Shopping!!! Add the occasional wine and the creativity flowed merrily.
Term 4 came all too fast. I was back at Mt Eliza Needlework. October is count down time for many projects’ completion dates, in time for Christmas giving.
And here we are again. Christmas!
Season Greetings, Happy Stitching, Don’t eat and drink too much, not.
I’ll see you all next year.
Catherine
