Those were great Sharon - I enjoyed reading about your thought process behind the work.

Hi all I just thought I would let you know that this morning I published a few of my pages spreads from my studio journal - along side a sample and wrote a little about the ideas behind the design. I thought a few people here might be interested

Hi Iris! I know a lot of people were interested in doing this but since stitchin' fingers is open to anyone, you should consider how you plan on doing this. You wouldn't want someone to take advantage of the situation that hasn't taken the class and wanted to get the information for free. We discussed this in class and decided we could communicate here by talking about the number of the lesson but not giving out too much information.

Hi Everyone,

I am new too the groups, I just finished Sharon's Studio Journals from the last class and really enjoyed the work that we did in the class. I found that I didn't have the time at that particular time in life to explore all of the areas as fully as I would like. In the new year as my personal growth I am planning on redoing the exercises hopefully working on one lesson a month. I am wondering if there would be anyone interested in joining me on this journey.

Iris.

Hi all just a quick note (and sorry for the cross post if you have seen this message in other groups) but I wanted to let people know that I have moved my blog. Please come and visit my new blog at Pin Tangle
This will effect this group because I am closing comments on my old blog and then deleting pages so please bookmark the new URL of http://www.pintangle.com/ If you keep a blog please spread the word. I would be very thankful to anyone who helps get the word out.

I think Jacqui touched on the most important thing to have - a desire to have fun and experiment! Leave all your ideas of how Art SHOULD be behind and go in with your imagination ready. One thing I wished I had more of at the time was different types of pencils and pens. . . crayons, paint sticks, etc. Of course, since I took the class I've had a good excuse to pick up lots of fun marking tools. LOL!

I don't think there was anything particular to purchase - other than a journal (or you can choose to continue one you have already started). Lots of magazines to cut up - glossy pictures are great. A glue stitck. Some form of colour - pencils or watercolours or acrylics. Most of all a desire to have fun and experiment lots. And if you can find it - time to play with ideas. It was great fun, a lot of new ideas to select from and a real boost to getting to grips with keeping a journal. Oh yes, the related Joggles forum you are signed up to when the class starts is the best part - we all got lots of ideas from each other and helped keep each of us on track when life got in the way. You should have a really fun time. And enjoy K&S - don't really have anything like this in New Zealand except for one craft show which was almost completely quilting and scrapbooking this year.

You lucky thing Helen. I had planned to go but just can't unfortunately. I'll be interested to hear if anyone has any suggestions though so I can get kitted up too.

Hello everyone, I have also signed up for the course later this month. I know we will be sent a list of stuff we will need closer to the start date, but I am going to a big show this weekend (K&S at Alexandra Palace) and thought it would be useful to get some advice on what you all found most useful to have for the course so I can pick it up there.

Hi Angie! I'm sure you'll enjoy Sharon's class, it's a wonderful learning experience.
