A New Sneaky Peak And Some Fabulous Family News

Janie's Quick Hello!
​

I hope that this email finds you all well and that you are looking forward to the weekend!

We had a good, but slightly soggy time at the Fibre East Yarn Show last weekend. It was great to say hello to those of you who dropped onto the stand - thank you for braving the rain and coming along!

I have another image of the Climbing Rose Wrap CAL project to share with you this week. I love this image of the forthcoming crochet along project, which was taken at The Red House, William Morris's Bexley Heath home. I am getting more and more excited about this project and really hope that you are going to like it as much as I do! You can find more information about the CAL on my web site by following this link.

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to attend and teach a workshop at the Stylecraft Purl Anniversary party which took place at the Stylecraft HQ in Slaithwaite, West Yorkshire. The images below show the Mill all cleaned up ready for the event where we were treated to a game of Special DK related Bingo and some party games, a lovely lunch, Prosecco and lots of cake!

In the afternoon I taught a beaded crochet class and had much fun passing on my favourite crochet skills to an enthusiastic group of lovely ladies.

The party took place on the same weekend as the Blogstar's biannual get together where we were shown the yarns for the new season and given a sneaky peek of designs for next season. We had a really great time and were treated to a fabulous 'flat lay' photography session in the afternoon with talented photographer Teresa C - @slicebyteresac on Instagram. I used the beaded flower workshop project as the focus for my images and was really chuffed with the advice and help we got. I will be doing this workshop again at the studio in the autumn, so do look out for more information soon.

There are a few spaces left on my two hand knit workshops at Missenden School of Creative Arts in a few weeks time and you can find more information by following this link. I will be teaching finishing techniques and colour work and you can choose to come along to one workshop or to treat yourself to both!

Finally this week.....I am totally over the moon to announce that our beautiful daughter Summer Rose and her lovely boyfriend Chris got engaged at the weekend. Chris is a true romantic and proposed in the Lake District while they were away for the weekend - he had even organised for a photographer to be hiding in the bushes to capture the moment he proposed on film. Bless him!

Andy and I are really looking forward to being part of all the years that this lovely pair have ahead of them. CONGRATULATIONS to our little girl and her Knight in Shining Armour!
