In my talk for the Embroiderers Guild, one of my themes was the importance of playing. When you are playing, you relax, and ideas and inspiration surface more easily. I found again some of the watercoloured faience beads I made to play with when I was planning the Faience Necklace piece.

My #EmbroiderersGuild #100Hearts piece was dispatched yesterday, and arrived safely today. And furthermore, I've just received an email to tell me that my Heart has been allocated to the exhibition in Liverpool Cathedral from 10 September - 7 October 2018! #embroidery #fiberarts #excited
