Little by little

Life continues to move along - people certainly seem pretty keen to return some sense of normal and the weather has been pretty spectacular so a lot of people are out and about.

We had our soft opening of the studio - over the weekend, mostly family and friends knew about it so we had a few folk pop in which was nice.  Its' a great place to share and people seem to enjoy it.

Next weekend is our big hurrah.

The notion of 'opening' has been a difficult thing at this time.  A traditional opening event is not possible because we just can't have 50 or 60 people get together.  So we thought when numbers gathering were very low, we would open our doors and folk could trickle in.  And then the rules changed and you could have 20 people sooner than planned, so we are a little out of kilter with our planning; but hey that is the 2020 way I think.

 We are still pondering whether or not have a series of rolling openings... but in he interim here is some colour from the garden!


I have been using letterpress printed paper to make gift boxes, and popping pieces of lead type inside them.



And rolling up the wrapping paper.


And loving this ampersand.


And still going for walks, coming across 0s and Xs



Hugs and kisses.

At exercises through week one woman spied this upright leaf. It looked just like bird with a worm in its beak!
