I'm really behind with posting to my blog, but I will try hard this week to catch up!!
Last week, my best bloggy pal
Lyn (from Everyday Life) and I were booked in for the day at the Hope & Elvis studio's for a day with the wonderful Many Pattullo.
We were entranced. Mandy's work is exquisite and she is a very inspirational lady.
She had brought plenty of her samples to give us idea's a plenty.
What I loved about it was that it was all hand sewing and only used the teeny tiniest of scraps of fabrics - the pieces are very economical to produce and her techniques were easy to follow.
She also brought a lot of her mixed media work to show us too.
Louise @ Hope & Elvis provided us with a lovely lunch.
This is my "work in progress" I have almost finished it so I will show you the finished article as soon as I have framed it.
We had a great day as usual, and it has fired my creative mojo back up again - which can only be a good thing!

That looks like a lot of fun. The samples look great and yours looks good too. I need some photography mojo.
Mandy's work is gorgeous - the deer and fox especially are beautiful. Lunch looks pretty good too! And look, you're making your own lovely stag - do show us when he's done! xxx
Wow! That looks a brilliant class. I am ashamed to say Mandy is new to me, but I love her style. I am blown away by the stag and fox too. You both look as though you had a great time and and your pieces are both super. I do hope we get to see the finished articles.
No wonder you feel inspired! I love the bird and fox. Looks like you two had a great time. Look forward to seeing your completed piece of work:)
I too am playing catch up Diane...at least you are in September...I'm still in August!
We did have a great day didn't we? Lots of creative goodness, yummy food and good chat with lovely people. I WILL FINISH MY HARE!
