WEAVING IS ADDICTIVE.


Graham has got his first loom and Cecilia said he couldn't stop working late into the night. This is very exciting news! It reminded me of this drawing by Edward Burne Jones entitled 'When William Morris got his first loom he worked 256 hours in the first month'.

JERWOOD CONTEMPORARY MAKERS.

The Jerwood Contemporary Makers, of which we were part, has now moved to Edinburgh.
If you are passing and haven't seen the UFO Project Administration Service, we would love you to see it, as we seem to have finished strange un finished projects in a whole manor of new and innovative ways.
You can also see Linda Florence's beautiful film 'Sugar Dance' pictured above, and many other wonderful creations from Clare Page, Harry Richardson, Julia Lohmann, Geoffrey Mann, Claire Norcross and Ismini Samanidou.
The show opens on 5th August at Dovecot Studios, 10 Infirmary Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1LT.

VIEW FROM CONSTABLE'S WINDOW.


About three years ago I was commissioned to knit a window and I made 'A View from Constable's Country'. Shortly afterwards my computer was stolen and I thought I'd lost the photos. Fortunately the lovely ladies at Tatty Devine had backed me up when I wasn't looking, because that's how sensible they are, and last week they presented me with the files and I was delighted!
