I would just like to thank everyone who has been to classes over the last four + years. Obviously The Patchwork Penguin wouldn't have been a success if it weren't for all of you coming along and telling your friends about it. The creative memories and experiences will live on, but in the meantime, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year. xx

I wanted to share a few of your lovely comments about classes... (sorry to be slightly self indulgent..!):
- That’s sad news. One of the best classes in St A in my opinion.
- This is really sad news as T has loved the sessions he's come along to. Thank you for all the hard work you've put in and all your creativity that we've been able to share!!
- Just to say again how sorry I am that you are giving up - I's just
getting into his stride, and it's such a lovely class.
- Understand why, but crazily sad about it... It really will be the end of an era.
- So sorry to hear that you are stopping the class. It has been such a good class for C and he has always really enjoyed it. You always do such a great job at organising and running the classes and the fact that they were drop in was fantastic!!
- It was always one of my daughter's and my favourite classes and you are a brilliant facilitator. Thanks for all your hard work and good luck for the future!
- We loved Patchwork Penguin, definitely our favourite!
- Sob sob very sad to hear it's stopping.
- It has been a wonderful year with you Jo. Thanks for everything.
- Very sorry it’s over for now, but you’ve given our families lots of good memories.
- Just wanted to say thanks for all the brilliant Patchwork Penguins classes, they've been really great. We'll miss them!

I feel sad to let you all know that the weekly Friday class is going to stop running after Christmas. I have run the classes for 4 and a half years and have had so much fun, met so many lovely people, made new friends and enjoyed seeing so many little people explore art and get messy. Thank you to everyone who has helped make it a success, by enjoying classes (some of you since I started in the Summer 2011), and spreading the word around St Albans! It has been wonderful, but it is now time for a change.

The Patchwork Penguin doesn’t end here though, we will continue to enjoy running ARTY CRAFTY PARTIES, either at the hall (under 7s) or in my studio (over 7s), so don’t forget about us when you're planning your child’s party! I really hope you can make it to the last two Christmassy classes and say goodbye to Peebles!

Love Jo x

PS. If you, or anyone you know, would be interested in running the classes, do get in touch...
