New blog!

Monday, 9 February 2015

Good morning and welcome to my new blog!

I’ve just had the most amazing weekend doing Jessica Swift’s wonderful Pattern Camp, a two day intensive course in pattern making. Although I already have some of the basics of pattern design nailed I’m always keen to learn new skills, see how other people work and I just love the energy and enthusiasm of being part of a group. I'd really recommend this course - it's fast paced and Jessica is a helpful and capable teacher.

So I’ve been planning on starting a new blog for a while and today seemed like a really good day to do it. After reading this wonderful guide to blogging by Beth Kempton a few weeks ago I decided that my blog needed a bit of a shake up in order to be something that supported my wish to further develop my skills and style in pattern making. I was often finding that although I enjoy writing my blog it sometimes took me away from my work for too long and didn't really support what I was doing. Plus, I also feel it's time that I was braver and shared my work more instead of keeping it all hidden... So here it is!

Work in progress from Pattern Camp
I will usually be blogging 3 times a week: Monday, Wednesday and Friday and you can get my blog straight into your inbox just by signing up. My intention is for my blog to be an adventure in pattern - focusing on play, process, practise and progress. I hope you will join me!

Thanks for reading,
Frankie x
