Surface pattern ecourse

So, after weeks of deliberation I've signed up to The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design ecourse. It's something I've been desperate to do since it first started; I'm a follower of Rachael Taylor's blog and she is a complete inspiration to me. The only thing that has been stopping me is the worry I'll not be able to keep up with the course work alongside running gooseberrymoon, looking after my two children, working my part-time job, list goes on... but hey who needs sleep anyway!

As a self taught designer it often crosses my mind about going to university to study surface pattern but with the list mentioned above this would be impossible. So when I saw this course it felt like the answer to my dreams and I can't wait to get started on the first module in late August!
