OK – After what seems like forever, I am still learning how to blog. Yesterday I learned that galleries don’t seem to work very well. The pictures looked small and uninteresting and didn’t display at all in facebook. Just a big blank space – which did have a link to the gallery page, but it took ages to load. Now I understand why people post one photograph at time. So, please be patient with me as I learn.

A selection of first pieces as learners tried out new skills. Well done!
As learners got more confident their techniques improved and work became neater and finished off well.
New techniques successfully mastered.
Finished work
A learner completed her new hat with motif.
Some finished products made with a purpose in mind, eg, the phone holder.
