Saturday I went off to Herts for the ERTF Conference on Colour. So nice to have Juliet with me - as she is excellent at navigating (sat nav in the car is for shouting at!) Ran into thick fog, and where did we go wrong? Missed the turning for the car park!!!
Brilliant day - so much new to learn about colour, for a start that there are zillions of different colour wheels. Joyce Honeysett was the guest speaker, very informative and kept us using our brains with various paper exercises. Mhmmm what colours are these..... I greyscaled them at home.
Our Vice Chair, Janet Cook also gave a talk. Beautiful quilts and art dolls, a very funny entertaining talk.
It was a lovely day, if a long one, so Sunday it was collapse in a heap.
Tuesday off to The Material Girls for the monthly meeting. A full on day, lots to go through, and yipee I've completed my hanging. Wish it wasn't so dull as I need a photo of it to send on to Canada.
I've also been out in my capacity as ERTF Website Manager, to discuss ways of taking that forward. Thank you Sally/Lorraine, and thanks to Sally for the excellent Lemon Drizzle cake to help discussions!!!
I've been in touch with someone who wants a small Art Works commission, and transacted my first ever PayPal income!!! And I have a second commission of this ilk to make. I wasn't sure about asking, you kow how it is when someone mentions, and you're not quite sure, is this a done deal or being polite? Same as a sale I've made. Wasn't terribly sure about it - but that was confirmed this morning. Actually I joke with the person that they are my Saatchi sponsors, as the family now have a few of my pieces.
And tomorrow, off to the Embroiderers' Guild for a talk by Lynda Monk.
