I visited N1WI this week. It was packed with lots of young, funky women, it's really nice to see a re-surgence in interest of the WI. I go to another one nearer my home as well, so it was nice to see the difference.

I strung my first necklace in a long time last night. I had some Wire Guardians, Scrimps and lovely silver colour stringing wire to try out, and after buying those beautiful Banded Agate beads last week I was desperate to have a go.

Had a great knotting class today with Suzen Millodot- once we got started. Unfortunately the room hadn't been booked for us, and that was after we'd all been to the wrong address- cue near heart failure on my part, but it was all sorted in the end and a great day was had by all.
