Is anyone else as exhausted as I am after yesterday? Carol and I drove back to Bedfordshire, and after I dropped her off I went home and sat on the sofa - which is where I stayed until I went to bed at 8.30!  Just can't take the pace any more (although it might also be that my menfolk were watching cricket, and tucked up peacefully in bed I could follow up the suggestions/hints/websites/references from the day on my tablet.)

Sorry I couldn't be there on Tuesday and meet you all. I so much wanted to come but had driven 700 miles in the preceding 3 days and couldn't face any more! I have been go using on tapestry weaving over the past 6 months and loving it. I do want to return to my cloth weaving though so if there were any particular themes or projects for next time I would love to know. Best Karen

I'm happy to use my name - it gets complicated enough trying to remember who everyone is with just one name to cope with!

I'm not at all surprised you couldn't face driving, I found it tough at a much shorter distance.

The plan remains to set yourself a target via a statement of intent, and then produce work or samples at the next meeting. Several people are working in doublecloth, but in many different ways, so that should be interesting.

I'd love to see the tapestry, it really interests me, but I have too much on my plate right now to take on something else!
