horst, yes horst, the horst is coming to ireland in june!
the lovely nicola has organised a workshop with horst.
and guess what, i really can't quite believe it, no really i can't, m is talking about tranquilising me before my head actually explodes, because i don't know how i can wait so long, but I'M GOING TO IRELAND IN JUNE FOR A WORKSHOP WITH HORST!!!
you can find out more about horst here ... horst couture
apart from the opportunity to work alongside horst, i'm so excited for loads of reasons: i had put aside this year to develop my feltmaking skills and start having fun with feltmaking again - what perfect timing! it will be great to meet nicola as i've been following her blog for a long time now, and she's such an inspirational feltmaker; i'm going to stay at a really lovely campsite; i've never been to ireland before, my nan's dad came from cork so i'm hoping i'll have a few hours spare before i have to catch my ferry home to do a wee bit of family history searching.
although i have to admit, it does feel a little daunting to be travelling all that way on my own! but i know it will be so worth it, roll on june :)

Well!!! What a pleasant surprise to come across such a nice blog with me included! The time is near and I am so excited for this nice month in Europe and meeting everyone to create such garments that will lead to more works by fellow felters that will top my pieces!!! I will be making 25 new pieces myself during this trip, which makes it even more exciting for myself. The fashion show in Amsterdam will be beyond excitment!!! Hope your ready and well rested!!!
well, thank you sir for your kind comments :)
25 pieces ... wow! you make me feel lazy ;)
ready ... yep, well rested ... hhhhmmm 'rest' is a concept i'm familiar with but it seldom makes an appearance on my 'to do' list!
looking forward to next weeked :)
