I know it's Thursday... This is my #WIPWednesday I am progressing rapidly with this one by sitting in the garden stitching and not doing other stuff! Hopefully the finished puece will also be on display at #DerbyshireOpenArts

I have completed a second #RoseBayWillowHerb mixed media artwork to add to my first. Very different but complimentary I feel. I will be exhibiting both at #DerbyshireOpenArts in Carsington at the end of the month

Delighted that Eastern Lights Studies 1 & 2 went to a new home this weekend. Luckily I do still have prints available on my website https://cognissart.co.uk/product-category/aceo-miniature-prints/

I will be back at #TideswellMakersMarket tomorrow, part of #TideswellFoodFestival I've missed the past few years due to the timing of my hip ops so I'm delighted to return to the same "pitch" as in 2022. St John's Church 10am-4pm
I'll be joined by fellow @peakdistrictartisans Tim Rose and Sally Ratcliffe so well worth a visit.
Oh, and did I mention, there will be plenty of food!

It's delightful to see actual sunshine in the studio, but it also reminds me that I have to move the ryijy out of its path.

My second new work, framed and ready for the @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtFair next week.
I know Mastodon is a worldwide place but it would be lovely to see some #MastoPeeps IRL so if you're anywhere near Buxton 12/13 Apr do come and say hello

I have framed my recent #quilting inspired studies and will be showing them at the upcoming @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtFair 12/13 April. They were all supposed to be the same size but unfortunately I picked up two different sizes of Aida fabric for them so the blue one is a bit bigger You live and learn!

And the prints have arrived of Silver Surprise. As always I'm thrilled with the quality of them I will be showing them for the first time at the @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtFair 12/13 April, and they will be listed on my website soon. I will also have the original with me, I pick up the frame later - watch this space!

I used my new geli plate. Lots to think about now re #StitchedEmbellishment
No quite #EnPleinAir (working from a photo as I started this one inside) but at least I am out in the fresh air. They're giving snow for next week so I'm making the most of it! Might count for my #SilentSunday too
