The pleasure and satisfaction that making gives is hugely beneficial for the human mind and overall well being. I can't imagine a world without making!
This leads me on the workshop last Saturday when we did the Cloth Collage workshop which gave me huge pleasure. It was an exploration of colours, textures and learning new skills. We had some great results and I am save to say that it was a day enjoyed by all. And for me there are always new things to learn no matter how long one has been practising. So thanks everyone to your contribution.
