Bit of a blogging break

Regular readers (hello mum) will have noticed I'm not posting as much as I normally, and indeed, like to do. However, for yours truly this is a Good Thing.

I am currently writing my fingers to the bone on a project about which I'll blog as soon as I can. It's unconnected to my (just finished) novel but came in just a few days after I'd finished writing it. Synchronicity, or what? Anyway, back to the hot and steamy keyboard. When I can tell you what it is, I will. Promise.

As Ione of my characters in my novel makes proggy mats, I could have read about how to make them or even watched on YouTube, I wanted to discover for myself what the process felt like, smelt like, sounded like. And so I booked myself on to a workshop at Beamish Museum, a place I love to visit. There were six of us on the proggy mat workshop...
