one loose thread goes to France

On 27 May I flew into Poitiers airport for the start of a ten day Art Holiday with Jenny and Malcolm O'Leary. Our base was the O'Leary's farmstead, Le POIRIER, converted into 3 gites, La Fermette, Le Grenier and La Chouette and a converted barn Le P'tit Nid, situated in the heart of the Deux Sevres countryside. During the ten days Jenny, who is a practicising artist and teacher, with over 20 years of teaching experience guided the five 'students' in the various crafts on offer - batik on tissue paper, batik on fabric, silk painting and machine embroidery.
