The first two days back went so fast. So much to organise and set up. I only met four of my new classes and they were all lovely. I had a fantastic lesson with my new GCSE class, they were all very enthusiastic about the course, fingers crossed it continues.
I have three projects to complete by the end of the month:
-A 10x40" wallhanging inspired by my holiday to Turkey this year
-My vessel for the Round Robin Challenge
- A sample for the Young Embroider's next meeting.
All of them are coming along, the latter two are almost completed, but I need to work hard on the wallhanging as it needs to be finished by 22nd September.
Sorry no pictures as my camera is playing up. I would like a new one and was hoping to wait until Christmas, but I might have to buy one before. If, I can get out of my mobile phone contract and change to an iphone, I would be able to wait and get the camera as a present. Any suggestion for a camera? I want an easy to use one but with a good lens to take close up work.
Too bad about the camera Diane! I read a good article that was emailed to me by Etsy comparing three different cameras. I can't remember the title of the article and no longer have the link but you could check out their Forum and see if anything is listed. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite cameras are Cannons. I now have a Rebel XTI and I am happy with it as my first SLR digital. Before that I had a great point and shoot that did great close ups, a Canon A80 model. Very easy to use. I don't think that they make that one any more. On the down side, it was really slow when it came to doing shots outside. Couldn't get a fast shot of a heron, a whale etc. lol I pretty much reserve that camera for close up and video capeabilities. Do some checking with Canons and their reviews. It should help you if you decide that brand. I had a Fiji briefly, but had to take it back, it didn't last the week before it was broken, so exchanged it for the Canon. Best decision. Good luck!
