Hi, sf, I was actually born here in Leam but moved away aged four and a half and went to school in Rugby. I have been back here since 1981. I have recently had more time to do creative things and having discovered jude's work and enjoyed it so much, i want to try some of her techniques. I do hope eventually to discover themes and a style of my own.

Hi! Great to see you here. I'm not as active on the site as I'd like to be, what with all the classes I've been involved with and with trying to keep up my regular blog. I have been in Jude's class but not actively involved with any Jude inspired projects, so I got out of the habit of posting on SEW. I too, am looking forward to the new boro class. I am in Arlee's advanced FS class and pretty much all alone. One other girl has posted infrequently, and the others have failed to show up. Kind of lonely, but I'm loving the project I'm working on.
