Latest work from groups


Some work at various stages by the members of this lovely group. These dolls were to teach the group some sewing, cutting, shaping, manipulation, decoration, embellishment and more techniques as well as working out the skill level of the participants. Some are incredibly skilled already and need no help from me just direction, these i hope are learning confidence and to stretch themselves and to adapt their skills to other areas,  some need more help and are learning well.

 

 

 

This is work done by some people staying in St Columbas for a variety of reasons and the art works on so many levels for them.

International Women’s Day


Yesterday I took my Ferrybank class to a celebration in Feerrybank Community hall organised by Sheila and the Community. They had great stuff. Most interesting to me was the creative writing session but they also had Jive, Nail painting, Massage and tea and cake!!

Well done.

The group are all working on their dolls for the class. Beatrice did the most amazing dreadlocks on hers and the rest are all coming on really well.They are amazing. Will post them as soon as I can wok out my HTC Wildfire(phone)
