Hi everyone
Paul here. I hope you are well.
There must be something in the air at the moment, as I am super excited again today. Yesterday it was all about going back to school, and today it is all about a group of 10 elegant ladies! Oooh er missus!
If you tuned into this weeks Groovi Tuesday, I gave you a sneaky peek of some brand new Groovi plates launching tomorrow on The Pergamano Show on The Craft Store (aka Hochanda) at 11am and 3pm
The first collection of plates have been designed by Barb.
Barb has often spoke of being a fashion designer and back in the day would often make her own clothes. I know that the urge to create is still there, as she has a small collection of sewing machines on display in her craft studio!
Well when it comes to these designs, a sewing machine is not required! So if you have ever wanted to be a fashion designer, then these plates are perfect! One size fits all!
The elegant ladies have been designed so that you can recreate them exactly as you see them, or if you are feeling creative, you can trace the outline of the outfit and infill with your own design! You also have a selection of fantastic fabric designs in the form of our Designer Parchment!

Due to popular demand, the lovely Josie Davidson – Queen of Grids & Patterns has worked her magic and created 2 brand new embossed pattern sampler plates – Diagonal 2 & Straight 2. Josie told me that these had been created to allow for more perforating and picot cutting opportunities. As with the previous 2 designs, they can be extended to create larger areas. These also work as perfect infills for the 10 elegant ladies!

When putting the TV show together, I went back through the Groovi archives and found some plates that will work perfectly with the new collections.
These plates were last on TV back in January 2017!

and so were these – crazy!

Here are some samples from the design team to whet your appetite




I am such a tease!
I have some great demonstrations to share with you tomorrow that the lovely Josie Davidson & Jane Telford have prepared for me, so I hope that you can join me at 11am and 3pm.
Enjoy your evening, and I will see you all tomorrow.
Take care and stay safe.
Paul xxx
