I’ve never seen Dover as buzzy as it was last Saturday. The town council organised a Christmas event culminating in the switching on of the Christmas lights and the roadshow organised by Dover Community Radio kept the crowds entertained all day. I was indoors most of the time trying to knit a bunting pennant as part of DAD’s bunting Forever project, but kept having to jump up and talk to people, which meant I kept losing count of my rows!
Craft is an important element in my work and part of my autobiography – I did ceramics at school and spent many happy hours doing batik work with my mother when we were in Indonesia.
I had a good time on Sunday in the studio and think this drawing is just about finished. I thought it was going into a show but have just learnt that it is not. Boo.
