The last workshop I did at Warren Editions was way back in 2011. I loved it so much, so it is unfathomable why it took me so long to sign up for another? Ah well, regrets at lost opportunities aside, I was happy to spend my Saturday at Warren Editions – which has expanded significantly since my …

Artfully Embroidered

Some found a purpose (that Pincushion papercut certainly proved its worth!), but most of them ended up in a drawer. So I really was super thrilled to find one of them being given a fresh purpose …
