I had my first session with an all women group at Alexandra Childrens` Centre…we were slow to get started as the women settled their children in the creche, but once we were all sat together the atmosphere felt really comfortable and calm. The women were really open to trying new things and as we tried out different things we shared our experience with each other. It felt like a really lovely start and I almost immediately felt very relaxed with this group of women. The women seemed to very quickly find their flow and became absorbed in their designs…
We used Bolton Museums` beautiful collection of shells to inspire our designs and then sewed onto the paper.
