@nerissact Hi....many years ago in Glasgow....at the Drama college... I knew a John Cargill Thompson....any relation ?

Made it to 25 sales thanks to a flurry of orders for my new #sidehustle of #wristwarmers #upcycled from old jumpers. #buylessbuybetterbuyhandmade

@DarrellWakelam @natstevenson1 @BloomsburyEd @BloomsburyBooks I have found that with the rise in eco packaging, brown paper tape is now more available in different widths and holds better than masking tape which is low tack as designed to peel off after painting.

@natstevenson1 @BloomsburyEd @BloomsburyBooks It is Natalie, most of the cardboard work I make and devise is recyclable so masking tape is a must . . . I did try to get 3M to sponsor me. 🤣👍

‘Half-Tube Heads’ is just one of the many projects I explore in my forthcoming book Art Shaped. I’ve used this technique for years, creating small character faces like these and larger, more complex masks. darrellwakelam.com ⁦@BloomsburyEd⁩ ⁦@BloomsburyBooks⁩

It was a lovely afternoon. Proud to have my work in your gallery.

@Herring1967 Real struggle this morning. About 20 mins between last lines as couldn't make anything. Lower chance of failure than when too many possibilities. Wordle 450 5/6* ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Wordle 450 4/6 Love it when you have to really work to even see a potential word. Feels like there’s nothing and then finally you work it out. 5 minutes on go 4. ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Enforced mellow music on the #radio is just making me feel as though I'm #onhold for a very long time. The occasional announcements (no chat) are the equivalent of 'your call is important to us'. @BBCRadio2 @BBC6Music

Sad Gongoozler festival cancelled but confirmed invoices still being paid. I was due to be making a collaborative quilt at it. So much hard work had gone into it by the team. Must've been a hard decision. Sad many community events cancelled. Not really into enforced mourning.

@Jacwdale Every time. Get well soon. After really full on stressful year, I got Shingles when I stopped for some time off in the summer. 😭😭😭

@cohesionplus @OutdoorArtsUK @melamaidstone @dkhadka024 @WeAreMaidstone @AMNMail201856 @maidstonenewsie Have a fabulous day. So many community events cancelled/postponed (I was due to be making a collaborative community quilt today). So much work had gone into them. Not really into enforced mourning.

After much discussion and advice from both local & national partners we have taken the decision to continue with the @melamaidstone on Sunday in Mote Park. The Mela will become a celebration of Her Majesty’s life and contribution to not just our nation but the commonwealth 🙏🏾

@eadingas @watsoncomedian Next you'll be telling me Winnie the Pooh is dead too. Sheesh!!!

'Paddington Bear, David Beckham and more pay tribute.'

At that new term point when various projects have all asked for availability but not confirmed dates so hard to plan and stressed all going to pick same dates. #freelanceproblems #freelancelife

They all did a great job and made fantastic #flowercrowns. Thank you for allowing me to post a couple of you in your #floral creations. I love that a plan was afoot to save all the #roses to become #ecofriendly #confetti. Hope the #wedding goes well.

My first #hendo & my first #freshflowers #craftworkshop. A #bridetobe who has booked me for #craftworkshops for work asked me to run a #flowercrown #workshop for her. Fabulous afternoon of #family, #friends & #flowers. #craftyhens #craftyhendo #hendoworkshop #workshops #flower
