Hi everyone,
I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and Calligraphy is on your New Year resolution list to either learn, move on or come and have a go!
Nick and I have managed to get all the workshops on the website now, so please take a look and get booking. There are still some spaces left for January's workshops and evening classes.

AT LAST - GIFT VOUCHERS
As I promised last year...

A DRUM-ROLL PLEASE!
I have been given the privilege, by Bortoletti, to test out two of only ten prototype Oblique Holders to see if they were good enough to run for production. I can say with a BIG FAT YES - they are both gorgeous and practical - which is why I love Bortoletti so much anyway. It has been such an exciting secret, that I have been dying to share with you all. So now you know. Stock is zooming in as I email you.

Register your interest in these brilliant new oblique holders with me and I'll let you know when they're ready to buy.

My other secret which is now out of the bag and sorted was the Commission work I did for Lord and Lady Edward Manners of Haddon Hall - which was then sent to Her Majesty The Queen. They wanted to send the biggest Christmas card from them and all who support and work at Haddon Hall. I scripted the front page along with other sheets
|
|
|
|
To The Queen from everyone at Haddon Hall
|
|
|
I also did my own page in blended ink and ink resist. The whole card (or book) has been copied and placed in the Haddon Hall archives. So, for me, it's another thing I now have now in the history books along with the work I did for The Queen in her Diamond Jubilee that is on the wall at Leicester Cathedral.

Finally
I've been working on some new ideas for Ink Blend and Ink Resist. There are some workshops for these as well and are suitable for a move-on or an intermediate level class.
