Things What I Made and Did.: -Crochet Update-
http://orangeandgreendragon.blogspot.com/2012/07/crochet-update.html
Things What I Made and Did. Sunday, 22 July 2012. I have been crocheting for about two and a half years now. I find it much easier than knitting as I like being about to zig zag around a pattern without involving mutliple needles. At the moment I am working my way through Sarah London's ' Wool-eater blanket'. I am also part way through a 'Granny-stripe'. As you can see, I like bright colours! So far the blanket is the width of a double bed, but I've only managed about 3 repeats of the 12 colours I chose,...

Things What I Made and Did. Friday, 27 July 2012. Community Arts and Crafts. In addition to sharing my work as a creator of things, through this blog I aim to share ideas for community artists and those who promote arts and crafts to others. I've recently competed a DTLLS. Qualification (Diploma to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector) at Hereford college of Technology which qualifies me to teach adults (14 ). I also have a reference book filled with royalty-free Victorian. Imagery (see Dover pictorial ...

Things What I Made and Did.: Birds of Paradise.
http://orangeandgreendragon.blogspot.com/2012/07/birds-of-paradise.html
Things What I Made and Did. Friday, 27 July 2012. A couple of years ago I entered a wrapping paper competition run by Frinton Press. I based my design on birds of paradise, a subject which I've always been intrigued by. I recommend that you look up the 'Life of Birds'. Narrated by David Attenborough. One episode of this series focuses on the wide variety of 'paradise' birds and the quirks which make up their species. Recently I've revisited a crochet pattern designed by Lucy of Attic 24.

Things What I Made and Did.: Hexy love.
http://orangeandgreendragon.blogspot.com/2012/07/hexy-love.html
Things What I Made and Did. Sunday, 22 July 2012. I feel a bit odd beginning this blog by explaining that my community art teaching seems to be winding down until September. However I am tentatively planning ideas for the evening classes I hope to run at Hereford college of Arts. Over the next academic year. Numbers permitting I hope to deliver both 'Sewing for the Home'. Courses over 8-10 week periods. In preparation for 'Sewing for the Home'. I have discovered patchwork quilting!

Things What I Made and Did.: September 2012
http://orangeandgreendragon.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Things What I Made and Did. Monday, 17 September 2012. As you may have noticed, I am a big fan of paper piecing at the moment, in particular hexagons! I was getting a bit impatient to see what the fabric would be like with the papers removed, so I made this quick pin cushion to satisfy my curiosity. The fabrics are both from ' Fancy Moon.

Things What I Made and Did.: August 2012
http://orangeandgreendragon.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Things What I Made and Did. Wednesday, 22 August 2012. Recently I went to Dorset with my family to stay in my parent's flat in Christchurch for just under two weeks, It was a lovely trip, not least because we seemed to be very lucky with the weather. On one of the days we traveled to Burton Bradstock on the Jurassic coast to eat in the pretty 'Hive Beach Cafe'. I chose mackerel which tasted really good, there's something about eating fish by the sea which makes it seem much fresher.
