Krowji

Well I moved in to my studio last week and must say I am enjoying having the space in such a creative environment!  I am sharing the room with 3 other people, one of who I already knew and am looking forward to getting to know more  people who work in Krowji.  I am hoping to attend the knitting group that meets in The Melting Pot Cafe on the first and third Wednesday evening to expand my circle of knitters.

Tomorrow I will be moving my loom into the studio and look forward to getting back in to my weaving.

I will be publishing the dates I will be open during the Open Studios in June soon.

Studio at Krowji

I am getting very excited about moving in to my studio in Krowji next week where I will be part of a large group of very creative people and where there is also a brilliant cafe where, as well as serving good food and drink, they also host events.

So I will probably be spending the Easter weekend sorting my stuff out and deciding what to take initially, can't wait!

For those of you not aware of Krowji here is the link

I will be taking part in the Creative Skills Open Studios there in June (2nd to 10th I think) so please come and see me there if you can.

Mobile Textile Supply Shop

Having lived here in St. Ives for 13 very happy years I am aware that there are some products creative people down here like to use that  are very difficult to get hold of without buying over the internet, or it may be that you only want smaller quantities than you can buy online.

I have therefore decided to branch out and become a mobile textile supply shop which will travel to events such as Embroiderers' Guild sessions, West Country Embroiderers, Lace Days etc., with products such as water soluble fabric, tyvek, hand-dyed threads and fabrics etc.

So if you know of any events in Cornwall which you think my mobile shop would be welcome at, please get in touch and I will do my best to help.
