This week I travelled back up to East Keswick for day two of my Yellow Poppies Workshop at Simply Stitch.
In the morning we concentrated on our designs and needle felting the key elements onto the backgrounds. By the afternoon all of the ladies were free machine stitching the detail into their work, including four ladies who had never done free machine work before but who are now hooked!
I’m encouraging participants to use their own design and colour scheme on this workshop so I’m thinking I may need to change the title …….”Yellow Poppies aren’t the only Flower”……..maybe not, I’ll work on it!
By the end of the day we still had some finishing off to do but the ladies had produced a beautiful collection of work, each with their own distinct style……
Thanks to Nicola and all the ladies for a lovely two days and I’m looking forward to working with you all again when I come back up in November.

What a splendid lot of felt – as a teacher you did well! We’re sure your students will continue to enjoy felting and stitching after such a good start.
