just chatting

Hi everyone

Well - I think the less said about the weather the better - don't you?

A bitty day today for me - I had something to do first thing this morning, then it was back home until I needed to go down to the garden centre for a workshop.  Once again - it was - crochet.  Still it is a very nice small group & everyone is doing really well.

In the gap before going down for the workshop I prepared 3 small canvases with Gesso ( to make sure - seeing as they were very cheap - that the canvas has been treated). So now they are ready for painting & the adding of the little Christmas decorations.  But that won't happen until Friday - as tomorrow is another busy day.

In the morning (well lunch time) I have my regular monthly lunch & then in the evening it is time for the final 2013 meeting of the Mold club.

Reminder to self - don't forget the mince-pies & drink.


Mmmm!!

Reminder to Mold ladies - don't forget your lucky dip Christmas card.  If you don't put one in - you don't pull one out.

See the Mold ladies tomorrow night - more tomorrow - with photos.
Night night

Over the last year or so all 3 clubs have been getting themselves sorted out in order to continue running the clubs from now on. Remember I announced in 2019 that I would be standing back at the end of 2020 & retiring.  I will of course keep in touch & visit the meetings now & again.  But it is now time for me to hang up my stamps.  Well not literally as I will still make cards - but you know what I meant. All 3 clubs now have the way forward sorted.  C

Jayne Nestorenko

Good morning I was informed this morning, by Rita of Mold II club, that Jayne Nestorenko had passed away on Saturday evening after a long illness. I suspect that there may be some amongst you who do not know of her - but many who do. I followed Jayne's work for a long time & many of those lovely large wooden stamps that were around came into my collection beause of her enthusiasm & creativity. I particularly enjoyed using, & held many workshops at Daleside, to show how to use the Treasure Box stamps which were very popular; I cannot now remember who made those stamps & there were different sizes & you made different shaped boxes according to how many pieces you stamped.  Then of course you also had the matching medallion stamp to place on the top of the box. The crafting world is saddened by the loss of this lovely lady. Sleep peacefully Jayne.
