artreach craft workshops


Here are some photos, courtesy of Joy, from the workshop with Artreach in Northwood last weekend. We made crochet flower necklaces and simple floral corsages, while other groups made hand sewn brooches or painted silk greetings cards.
Here is Susie Johns, who it was a pleasure to meet again, showing her groups how to paint beautiful designs onto silk.
And here I am reintroducing a mother and daughter to the delights of crochet.
Lots of fun was had by all and I have since begun a series of mixed media workshops with the group, aiming to create a colourful textiles wall piece, or 'quilt' around the theme of snow days. Will post pictures here when it is completed in a few weeks time.
