Over the years I have been asked time and time again for information on how to use some of our more unique products, Puff Paint mostly so this is what I have been doing. They are just booklets but are full of information, ideas and techniques with lots of photographs and hopefully fellow textilers will find them useful. They are about to go to print but I have uploaded the front cover of the first. There is a series and I have decided to call them It’s Just… so the ones I have written so far are Its Just… Puff Paint and Its Just… Rusty Stuff and of course I have got many more in the pipe line. As they are only just about to go to print I will send out a newsletter when they are ready and post here as well.

Full details will be available shortly. However if you want to see me in action have a look at the link below..

So I have attached a picture to prove the reality after over a year of writing, re-writing, making etc etc… however I am really pleased with it, the colours, the pictures, the design, let alone the excellent content! tongue and cheek! are just lovely. From Monday we’ll be taking pre-orders which will receive a complementary gift from the craftynotions website.

My New Book

My New Book

It was nice to see old friends and new at the Craft 4 Crafters show here in Newark although I think we could have all done without the rain. Also many thanks to my pal Judith who made a brilliant quilt out of the some of the blocks that I was printing at the Festival of Quilts show out of our stencils and the tee juice fabic. Althought we’ll have ti for a while it is destined for a charity in Newark
