The fabric is a very light cotton voile made using this French pattern from Citronille. It’s called ‘Selma’.

My print class has finished now but I am thinking of enrolling in an ‘open studio’  class next term . That is a class where there is no tutor but people can go in and use the studio and printing press.

The Kapiti Concert Orchestra has started rehearsals for our next concert and one of the pieces we are playing is ‘Peter and the Wolf’ by Prokofiev. – yours truly is the duck!  The concert is early November – details closer to the time.
Off to spend some time in the studio now as I have a free afternoon – finish my blouse : )
