I've spent the last few days working on designing a ring as a gift for my sister - here are some pictures of the piece in progress!

New Worshops

 
I've updated the range of workshops and courses for this year, so there are lots of new classes to choose from. Every class is being repeated every month and i'm trying to rotate them so they fall on different days of the week. I'm really excited about the new classes, and now my computer is working again, I'm working hard to promote them and to reach new students.
 
If anyone has thoughts about a workshop they attended and enjoyed, or an idea for a type of workshop that i don't currently run, but you would like to attend if i did run it.
 
Look out for regular features here highlighting some of the new workshops.
