Barbara Taylor Bradford is one of my favourite authors and so I bought her new book The Ravenscar Dynasty. I need to finish Stephen King's before I can make a start on the new one. I also found a coopy of Surface Design magazine and I love it. It's so full of inspiration.
Yesterday we went up to Perth and visited Caithness glass. We then went up to the Famous Grouse distillery. We were the only ones there and when I told Jim, the tour guide, that I was researching the uses of copper he gave us a very in depth tour of the distillery and I came home with lots of good photographs for my research project for the quilt Judging course.
My book on the Conniston Copper Mines arrived today which means I can make good headway on my project notes and also have a few new things to add to my Journal wbhich I also have to keep up-to-date for the judging course.
I just have to add few touches to my first assessment piece design and then I can move on to Module 8. My classes start back on Monday and so I will have less time for the next few weeks. I can't believe how quickly this break has passed by. I am teaching lots of different projects this coming term and so I have a lot of prep work to do for Monday.
When Susan offered to mail my jpgs for the She Made her Mark challenge I checked out her website and fell in love with one of her pieces which was for sale. Well I bought it and it arrived today - it's lovely. I will post a picture later. My camera is full of pictures of my visit to the distillery and Caithness Glass at the moment so I will need to download them.
