Sunny Harwich!

Hello friends

Last Saturday found me at Swan House Crafts in Harwich, Essex.
My very first trip there and it was an absolute treat.

Swan House Crafts is an art gallery, tea room and craft shop
and full of delights.
Run by Katrina and her husband and there's also a rather gorgeous 
dog in residence too - had to have a cuddle!


A Platinum machine in full window view :)



And here are the ladies at the workshop, we made three projects.
One took particularly longer...


This was the card I featured a while ago using the Quatrefoil Panel
and reinserting all the fallout pieces.
The room was very quiet at this point!


I'm pleased to say everyone enjoyed making them and it was great to share
this technique with them all.


Some of the finished cards, interesting to see the different designs.


 



Huge thanks to everyone who came along and to Katrina,
fab lunch and cream tea too!

I'm hoping to return later in the year to do a Christmas workshop.

Take care friends.

    Hi Christine
    Looks like a very therapeutic class, I enjoy things like that, it calms the mind. I loved the colours you used on that card.
