Up Close – Images From The Create And Craft Show

Thanks for all the lovely comments via the blog, and email (into the show and direct to me) etc, I am glad you liked the show.  6pm is an odd time for a live show as the Freeview airtime stops after the 5pm show.  I think that meant that only the select Sky viewers and those who [...]

Lizzie Doll Show In Detail

Thank you for all the emails, Twitter messages, Facebook messages, and Blog comments about the Friendly Plastic show yesterday, I am glad you enjoyed.  I was amazed at how much time I had to demonstrate; at least it felt like a long time, perhaps you did not think so!  Lesley was the lucky winner of [...]

Lizzie Dolls, Pellets, Rubons and More

Even the Create and Craft schedule says the Friendly Plastic show will be on tomorrow, and to give me even more confidence that it really will happen, I have had The Phone Call. So, tomorrow I will pack all the samples in the car (not leaving any behind this time!) and head south for what [...]

More Monday Masks

The contrast between the melting heat in the Green Room and the cool air-conditioned Create and Craft TV studio was glorious.  There seemed to be a lot of people in the studio, perhaps they were avoiding the heat elsewhere.  Dean was lovely to work with as a presenter and he is such fun and professional (the [...]

Masks On Monday

Too hot to do anything energetic today, except walk the dog and find my camera In the end I enlisted the help of the household and within moments my camera had been unearthed from a massive pile of things to sort which had slumped sideways and hidden the darned thing. Having repossessed it, I made [...]

Talking Texture Clever Bods.

The last few weeks have flown by.  I went to give a talk and demonstration on my Friendly Plastic and Textile creations to Lincolnshire Embroiderer’s Guild.  I think that went down fairly well, at least everyone seemed full of questions and interest.  We did have a few interesting moments when the College’s PA system gave us [...]
