Hello. It's been nearly a month since my accident and I'm feeling much more human again. The whiplash is still bothering me quite a bit, but I've been told it's a lengthy recovery for that, so I'll just have to be patient.
Last week was the Summer Boutique pop-up for We Make London at The Oak Studio in Hampstead. A lady bought the original framed papercut of my "Life is Good" piece - so that was pretty exciting. I also ran a workshop there on Wednesday night which was really fun. I particularly want to thank Mary at We Make for being so super organised and generally very fab! The crafts journalist, Clare Kelly, also attended and she'll be writing a review of the workshop for the Course Notes feature for the online magazine, From Britain With Love. So I'm looking forward to reading that when she posts it up.
Also I was able to run another workshop at The Make Lounge in Islington last night. I'm really enjoying the teaching and the results that people come away with are really fantastic - especially as pretty much all of them have hardly ever used a craft knife before. Unfortunately I only had my mobile to take photos with as I forgot my camera, but you can still see their great results. Fab group of women - there was much laughing going on!
Looking forward to the next one this Saturday. If you're interested in participating, there are still a few places left on Tuesday 19th July (pm) and Saturday 23rd July(am).
Here are the pictures from The Make Lounge workshop
OMG....I just read your last post....I had no idea. You poor thing. I'm so glad to hear your much better. I wonder how the hell that lady smashed into your car, especially if it is a quiet street. Those stupid policeman. There should be an enquiry into that.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna. It's been a bit of a trauma, but hopefully things can only improve. Moving house in 2 weeks too! Yikes!!!

Hi Suzy,
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely to meet you at this class, which was absolutely briliant - fun AND productive! I was so inspired that I have already made another paper cut illustration, and am now a big fan of your work. Thank you so much,
Zoe
