If you have liked what you have seen when visiting my stalls recently, and would like to learn more about it and take part in a fun filled creative day to do some of your own printing, this might be just the thing for you.
There are still a few places left on the June date.

Thank you to all you lovely people who came to my stall on Saturday. There were a lot of lovely compliments about my work, and I sold lots of items, so the charity pot is filling up really nicely. It was such a fabulous festival in beautiful surroundings, and the weather was kind too. A big thank you to Greg for organising it.

I think I need to concentrate on printing for a while, as my rail is now looking quite sparse.

All set up and ready to go. What a lovely setting. Springfest in the grounds of the old Coventry cathedral. Here's to another good day

A huge thank you to everyone who came to my stall yesterday. It was a glorious sunny day and you all helped me fill up the pot. I'm on target to make a good amount again this year for Cancer Research UK, so, thank you once again.
Next Saturday, I will be selling my wares at the Springfest, in the ruin of Coventry Cathedral, from 12 until 5pm, a really spectacular backdrop to the event.
This is a first for me, and I'm looking forward to seeing some new faces, and maybe some familiar ones too.

Here are a few new vest tops coming to Brinklow on Saturday. It won't be long now until we are baring our arms and getting a good dose of vitamin D.

It's wonderful to see new leaves emerging on the trees. We have been printing with leaves that we painstakingly pressed and dried last autumn, since November, but soon, maybe in about 4 to 6 weeks, we will be able to start using fresh leaves again. We need to give them a little time to accrue enough pigment and tannin first.
