The Lancashire federation WI trip to Denman took place in March this year.
I got Scandinavian crafts as my course from the shortlist I had chosen. It sounded fun, lots of new things I had not tried before.
Our tutor was Natalie Green – a lovely, lively, engaging lady.
Lino cutting, which most people do at school, but not my school. First attempt to print on the left. Best one on the right. Very messy ink, not really my forte.
Needle felting, I like doing this and her method was slightly different.
Embroidery. Covered notebook with felt and embroidery.
Embroidery. Needle-case with Scandi type design.
Fimo Craft. Fimo is modelling clay with once shaped is set by putting it in the oven for 20 minutes.
Heart wall hanging.
Tiny buttons.
Heart buttons.
Fish Magnet. The colours were added with sharpie pens, very carefully.
Boats, what else.
All these items were made with one packet of white Fimo. It comes in many colours and releases your inner child.
Card making, using Washi Tape. Coloured and patterned tape used to create shapes and pictures. Also button cards, so easy, great ideas.
And paper cutting, see other blog entry.
Motely crew of happy crafters.
