Hi
Looks like good fun was had by all. I'm trying to reorganise my workroom to gain more work space. Not easy with so much stock to store and I can't throw anything away!! Everything comes in handy at sometime!!
Cheers
workshop looks like fun, i remember doing some devore at college.
you left a comment on my blog asking to join the toadstool swap, can you please let me know if you are still up for it, i will be drawing swap partners tomorrow, thanks : )
these scarves are gorgeous! I would have loved this workshop...
You lucky thing!! I love doing Devoré, but you rarely get the chance to do it on this scale outside of college.
The finished scarves look amazing.
