Exciting treats!

Post by Mabel Figworthy »

*squeal!* Having just lost a regular stitching student I have decided to splurge money on treats :roll:

Booked into this Royal School of Needlework goldwork day class which they are teaching in the town next door, in April - a week after my birthday, so that's a good excuse :-)

And am in the process of arranging a private one-to-one goldwork tutorial at the RSN Hampton Court Palace in October :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop:

I'd better be offered at least three workshops at the Knitting & Stitching Show to pay for it :lol:

Mabel, I can't think of better treats for you! You'll make such good use of the classes, and all of us who love (and buy!) your designs will eventually benefit. :dance: :dance:

How exciting!!!! I am so very jealous that you are taking a RSN class. My DH and I will be in the UK in March and I desperately wanted to take a class, but with only a week to visit (and my lack of interest in stumpwork) I chose to forgo my opportunity.

Enjoy your class - I'm sure it will be tons of fun and I can't wait to see what you produce!
