S
ometimes when I’m deciding what to write as my
editor’s letter I check through the fi rst paper proofs
and decide what my favourite pieces are and what
ones I’m going to mention. This month I’m a bit stuck as
I really like pretty much all of it! So it’s been really hard
trying to choose which pieces I’m going to talk about here
on this page.
I guess part of my problem is that I’m a great fan of
this time of year, and yes, you guessed it this month’s
theme is autumn. All the beautiful golds, browns, greens
and reds that decorate our countryside through this
season really appeal to me. But, well I’ve got to choose
at least one piece to grace this page as the main picture!
Ok so procrasination apart I think my favourite is Sarah
Austin’s chainmaille Autumn Cascades (p12), I don’t have
the patience for chainmaille and always admire Sarah’s
work when her project pieces arrive in the office. The
tactile feel of the jumprings, that feel fluid like water, is
so lovely on your fingers.
There you go, I got around to selecting my favourite,
so what’s yours?
