I took today as a day off work, following the Urchfont weekend, with the usual great intention of doing some sort of art work in order to keep the momentum going after the end of the course. Have I done any art work???? Of course NOT. I did look at one side of my 'studio' and thought about the pile of sketchbooks I have from recent courses. Soon this....... 
became this.......
It has taken all day as many of you would understand once you start looking in boxes you can't stop and it becomes a bit exciting to see what other old delights you can dig up. At least now my sketchbooks are easier to get to for when I want to remind myself of a project or continue with one. Back tot he Urchfont open day.... I'm sorry team if you are reading this, I cannot get my camera to upload some of the pictures I took when all the exhibition was up and ready. So I hope these will give you a taste of the works...

Adrianne.... her three poster pieces showed a lovely progression of destruction... 
Pauline.... had a lovely concertina book for her samples... 
the next two are both ends of Maggie's stand - her work was so vibrant and the sketchbooks were just fantastic....
Anna ... I'm sorry but the photo of the left side was too dark to upload. Anna had to travel to Urchfont by train so her works were delightfully small. Lots of lovely little books of samples. 
Next again only one side of Hazel's stand, followed by her awesome bag..
Jane.. is one of our Machine Embroidery students, I think she is definitely no beginner - her work was such fun and so well colour coordinated. The sheep brought a smile to all faces. 
And finally Molly the other Machine Embroidery student.... As you can see Molly's interpretation of Wootton Basset's old hall has such depth.- 
all in all a lovely exhibition.

Simply stunning!
Its very sad when a course comes to an end but with all that lovely work behind you you have a big repertoire to call upon for future works, and good frineds to support you. When I finished my C&G the first thing I did was sit down at my machine and start sewing with no idea or plan and the result was one of the best things I did but I don't have it anymore..someone persuaded me to sell it to them!
Some Beautiful work by you all.
Thanks for sharing this amazing exhibition anna!
I had my sound on for once and really enjoyed the music too! :)
