The beginning

I am now starting my first course in textiles and I have to admit that I am very excited about it!! I have got my sketch book ready and have been looking at my old sketch books this morning and now I can't wait to start. My hopes for this course are that I can do it.....?!, that I enjoy it and that I can continue with it until I have completely achieved a BA Hons! I plan to work when little T is at nursery twice a week with additional time being found in the evening and at weekends, but I will have to see how it goes and maybe juggle it about abit it, we will have to wait and see....

I want to gain from this course a greater understanding of textiles in all its forms, my only real hands on experience of textiles so far is knitting and I am just learning to crochet so I am looking forward to learning more ways to create textiles. I am also looking forward to learning how to look at the world differently, how to interpret objects I see every day into textile art and to develop my drawing, which, I have to admit, I haven't done much of since my days at art college in the 80's, gosh, when that is put into writing it makes me feel really old!
