Brasington Workshop recap

Robert does not know i took this one :)
Well now....it has been 5 days since Robert headed back out of here.   
He is safely back in Tasmania, with his bags a little lighter!   

I cannot begin to guess at how many miles were traveled to get here but we made 17 Concentrix kites, and 11 Wind Tulip Kinetic spinners, sold some more kites, flew some sweet indoor kites (on order btw!) and had a LOT of laughs.  Other fun things to note are that we had three people who had never made a kite before take part, and also that Robert got to see the Stanley Cup up close and personal!
   The Hastings House staff loved having us there, and the question from both kite makers and the HH staff was "when is the next one?" answer: it is in the works.....

Here are some pictures to share

Beth and I want to say thank you to everyone who took part in the workshops.   
We enjoyed having you, and hope you all had fun too!   
See you at the next one!

We are up here getting ready for the Workshop weekend with Robert Brasington.   
The amount of colors that will be in the Hastings House workspace will be WONDERFUL!

Sale!!!

Prices have been dropped on a few kites from the Longbottom collection for a bit of time.

  • The Angel series are amazing beautiful kites that are beautiful enough to hang in an office and they also fly like a dream as well.   Keep one in your bag for a memorial flight, or add a neat kite to your night fly.   We only have a couple of each of these so, if this kite tempts you grab it while you can!
  • Pterodactyls are a bit lower as well, we picked up a handful from Karl and Sara in Dieppe and these guys are looking to climb into your bags.   Awesome flyers, they are also great to use as part of your Halloween decorations too!
Kites are coming and going all the time here; so keep checking back, or subscribe to the rss feed (link on the right) to get the most current news sent to your email box.

new kites, new old kites too

New kites added up onto the website.....have you checked them out yet?
The Pipa fighter from Karl Longbottom, pterodactyls, doves as well.
Handful of new pieces from Robert Brasington, including a new kinetic piece.

The Yard Sale has some new pieces in there as well, including a gorgeous original Bill Lockhart box kite (more on this later).

Hopefully if you were in the path of Hurricane Irene you made it through okay, we had a bit of a blow and a bit of rain, not too bad.
