Happy New Year Everyone!!!
Well, what a year it has been. So many ups n downs. I know so many of you who had some huge losses...and your hearts were broken. The old adage that "time heals all wounds" is true...but it hurts all the same. Please know that I am here for each and every one of you...in whatever capacity you might need. I extend this to you in love and in friendship.
Henry, Rob and I had a wee road trip to the Southern Highlands for 6 days. I attended one amazing 3 day workshop at The Green Door Studio...with the unbelievably talented ROXY sisters...Rachel, Sarah, their beautiful mum JuJu, and so many more super talented Textile Artists. Corrine, from To Be Loved Treasures, Christina from Christina Creates, Kate, from Kate in the Nest, and Dawn from Dawn Meldrum. All these gals are on YouTube...do check them out.
On our return...I spent a day in Newcastle along with my gf, Helly...and we went to SEW.BE Curated...meeting the gorgeous and super talented, BEC. The Roxy Journal Of Stitchery girls had come up to visit Bec...and we all stitched together for a day.
I'm still in awe...as I met my 'stitching soul sisters' in both places.
Truly, it was so powerful to be surrounded by so many truly talented textile artists.
So, while the studio here isn't hosting as many workshops...I am introducing a Saturday SLOW STITCH Class for those who are involved in the Slow Stitch movement and want to share their thoughts, ideas, etc. This is NOT a teaching class. It is for those who are already involved in it.
Please bring your lunch and I will provide both morning and afternoon tea along with coffee etc.
I will have a bench of fabric bundles and embellishments available for purchase as well.
The rest of the classes are as they were in 2024.
So please come visit, meet some new friends, find some old ones, and enjoy the company of some wonderful people.
ROB ASKS THE NO ONE PARK ON THE LAWNS ANYMORE AS THEY ARE WELL AND TRULY DEAD. PLEASE PARK ALONG THE DRIVEWAY ONLY.
HENRY...HE IS ANXIOUS FOR YOU ALL TO RETURN. ESPECIALLY A COUPLE OF HIS GF'S WHO GIVE HIM TREATS...YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!
SEE YOU SOON,
Dawne 💛🌻💛
