Come along to Walford Mill Crafts in Wimborne this Saturday for Festivities At The Mill. I'll be there in the afternoon as one of the Guest Demonstrators so if you'd like to know how my books are made, see them in person and meet the maker, this is your opportunity. Come over to my table and say hello!
