Two years in Northern Ireland...

We're about to have our last 'making it' session. It has been a real joy to work with six inspired makers, their host organisations and Craft Northern Ireland funded by Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Invest NI. 

I've uploaded a gallery showing what we've been up to and will add our October session in due course.

Thanks Alison, Eamonn, Catherine, Katie, Michelle and Diane for working so hard, driving me around and introducing me to the sights of Northern Ireland.

Thanks to Craft NI for giving me the opportunity to run the programme for two years and exceptional coordination.

And thanks to contributing guest speakers Matthew Maran, Holly Berry, Beatrice Mayfield and Charlene Mullen.

It's cold outside and there is sad news...

... so watch this video by Adam Frew of him firing ceramics in a wood and oil powered kiln with a little bossa nova soundtrack. Fire and Rio combo will warm you up.

Inspired to think of his bossa nova video by the sad news about Oscar Niemeyer, working until only recently in Copacabana.
