Perfect for use with ink and brushes, but also…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Before you wonder why I’m shouting about the SHAC today, when we‘re having a little break until October, well it’s Monday, and I have been thinking about things.

So when we do get back together in the SHAC…

Hi there! Thanks for popping in. TGIF!! Grace is here in England, being Grace! She is such a fun energy. Honestly, she never stops chatting and larking about! We had fully intended to go to Brighton on the bus today, but chatty chatty, giggly worky just got in the way. So we’ve rebooked our excursion for next week. Brighton’s not going anywhere, and neither is the bus. Back in the SHAC though, are you ready to have another Thursday Craftalong…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. I was up with the lark this morning. The birds were tweeting up a symphony outside the bedroom window, the sun was peeping through the curtains – and I just couldn’t lie still any more! So I’ve done my yoga session, fired up the washing machine, cleaned the kitchen, hoovered and dusted the dining room – and it’s not even 8am yet! Dave and I even had a deep conversation about Oscar Wilde, Reading…

Anyway, I went off at a tangent, and decided to…
