i have had a very last minute cancellation for ‘Exploring Place’ taught by Debbie Lyddon, a fabulous tutor … starting this tursday, yes, tomorrow , for four days … thr fri sat sunday.. it is £375 for 4 days of expert tuition here at the granary studio … this is a great opportunity .. pls let me know if you want to take the space.
Sorry I have been so quiet, i have had a traumatic couple of weeks …. I have been at two back to back shows, The Scottish Quilting Show in Glasgow followed by Fashion and Embroidery at the NECin Birmingham … however, the clutch went on the way up and the clutch master cylinder went on the way back!!
Now trying to catch up with myself ..the only class left in March is Clare Bullock’s felting class on Friday and Saturday(23&24), we could squeeze one more if anyone wants to come very last minute .. she is teaching ‘Mapping with Prefelts, Landscape and Print’ so a fun two days ahead.
April sees the start of my creative textiles monthly class and the procion monthly class continues, both of these are full but you can always reserve a place for next year!!
Caroline Bell’s classes start this month with Spring Eco on 17&24 April, two consecutive Tuesdays, again we have a space or two at a squeeze on this course, hopefully spring will have sprung by then!
Mel Rose has two life drawing groups running on Sat 21 and Sun 22 April, both of these are full this month but there are a sprinkling of spaces in future months if you are interested.
Finally and certainly not least, Debbie Lyddon is coming to the Granary Studio to teach ‘Exploring Place’ for 4 days 26-29 April, again this one is full but I have had two cancellations for the extra class we have put on for the waiting list … 8-11 May, so, if you would like to work with this inspiring tutor, please let me know, I am sure these places will go quickly
Sorry this is a bit wordy, but hopefully you are already booked on something, if not, why dont you fill one of these spaces!

sorry to have been so quiet, I lost my hard drive on the approach to Christmas and it has taken me a long time to recover my information!
Anyway, Merry Christmas now, I hope everyone had a great Christmas, I had a good one staying with my kids for the first time , after cooking 37 turkeys on the trot, I was cooked for by my son-in law… very different and very wonderful…
I have at long last sent out a newsletter to my followers and updated the website accordingly…
First, I introduced Heather Chalkley, who is coming at the end of January to teach a fabulous exotic bird picture, bright and cheerful in these dark days, I expect this workshop to be very popular as I have had quite a few requests to bring patchwork and quilting to the Granary Studio.. in fact the bookings for this have already started! I hope this will be the first of many workshops from Heather… do visit the Classes page to find out more
I have some upcoming classes in January with spaces, listed here, so , if you are interested, do please get in touch.. as follows:
16th Jan Eco-Stitch taught by Caroline Bell, a lovely relaxing day, bringing together all those samples you have created in the summer months when there were leaves on the trees!
20th Jan Life Drawing for beginners, 1space only, taught by Mel Rose, if you have always fancied a go at life drawing, Mel is a lovely sympathetic and inspiring tutor, so do come and join in the fun
26-28 Jan Exotic Bird taught by Heather Chalkley, just released, come for a weekend of bright inspiring learning
Thats all the classes with availability for January, I hope to post this information at the end of every month from now onwards, I won’t mention the full classes but I always keep waiting lists, so it is worth getting in touch for other sessions you see in the Classes page of this site.. life happens and I get cancellations, mainly because students book so far ahead
I hope 2018 is a happy and healthy year for you all
Susan x
