I thought I’d have another go at the Anna Dress, using a cute poplin that is so soft and floaty. I liked it so much I bought 6 meters, which turned out to be lucky since it took a lot of it! The reason for […]
Anna Dress, take two
Cherry Dress
So this came as a pack, which was a nice thought but ultimately doesn’t take into account the size I am. Shame but nice idea! Nice fabric, very pretty. I somehow got the measurements completely wrong though and ended up slicing and dicing the final […]
Week Three: Blended Learning
This week is the last week, and talking about putting blended learning into our own context. I was struck by the ways in which we can gather data for Osted, since that is always an issue. I like to hear student opinions, but I did […]

Useful resources from this week: Good things foundation – this does seem to have a lot to it but I am doubtful that it is useful to me at this point. CILIP – library and information association – again, not directly useful at this point! […]
Covid-19
One of the conversations that has been recurring for me is the “but why am I so tired” one. I’ve had it with students, and other staff, with family and with friends. The thing everyone forgets is that we’re six weeks into having a new […]
