Jessie Chorley Workshop - What I got up to

Morning all.

I'm back to share with you what I got

up to in the Jessie Chorley workshop

I went to recently in London.

With a table full of loveliness we began creating.

Jessie provided threads, lace ...

and a suitcase full of goodies for us to use.

I fell in love with this shade of pink paint on the table.

We were asked to take some words of inspiration.

I took Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll as it had this

 wonderful poem in the back.

And so I began stitching the words...

on different ribbons and linen using an old red linen thread.

 I added this bow from Jessies treasure box, some

faded pink ric-rac, a scarlet and ivory cord and a pin on the back...

and this is the finished item.

After lunch I made another piece using a vintage

diamante brooch and some sheet music.

To finish it I added a soft net bow.

These were made by the other talented ladies on the workshop

and the little 'once upon a time' brooch was

made by Jessie.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what we got up to.

On my next blog I'll share some photos of

a few things I could leave without!

Enjoy your Monday.
