This week has been busy for Linen Stitches. On Wednesday, long over due, I met my friend Helen for dinner and showed her my Melanie portrait and the new leaflets I've produced to advertise the business. She has now signed up for the International Quilt Day event on 19th March -which is proving to be v popular!
On Thursday, number 1 coach Dougie ran a workshop (a bargain at £15) -ten ideas to improve your business, which proved to be v useful -he's currently developing a programme of other events- Dougie Brown
Yesterday Janet braved the snow and we set off to Huddersfield for the Dougherty fabric sale - spent far too much money along with a room full of other ladies, but did get fabric for the hair of a lady I'm commissioned to do a picture of! Needed about a two inch square of fabric- came away with several metres!
The afternoon was spent selecting frames and canvasses for the event I'm planning to have in July. The evening was occupied by a trip to the Apple Shop in Meadowhall - most impressed by the service. Will soon be techno-ed up ready for my course to begin- still can't wait!
Today I'm busy with a design to celebrate a wedding - am v excited (again!) about the prospect and feel like my business is realy happening. Further details will follow!
