Though I put the link, I thought I would add a couple of pictures, ever seen a pumpkin used as a gold fish bowl, it's the right colour.

Back from woolfest, had a good time Saw old friends, wonderful wools some great work. Bought some wonderful Gotland, I just love the colour have plans for a winter coat. I also got some Teaswater, will be interseted to see how it felts also some wonderful Black/grey/brown wensley daale. I really wanted a Blue faced leister fleece but there was't any, I shall have to try else where.

Coat, merino, silk, antique lace beads and stitch, pleased with it, a friend has taken it back to Vancouver.

HAd a really good Open studio, thank you evry one who came, thank you every one who purchased

I am off to wool fest, lets hope it stops raining, hoping to get some lovely wool or the odd fleece.

Open Studio

Just started Open Studio am sharing with three friends who are painters, we are using a wonderful georgian house with a court yard, so lots of space to show the work, though In say it myself it looks good.

We had a really good party for our private view and sold a bit, be good to see lots of people coming to see what we do, I will be demonstrating some of the days.





Love this Gotland fleece, have made cushions, hat and bag with it so far a lovely soft grey colour.

Have not added anything for so long, the snow has gone as had christmas and the new year. Have had a bad dose of the POMS (poor old me) I can't se why,I have so much good inmy life, but I got myself in a bad place, feeling better now, taking pictures working on ideas, walked in Knole Park in the drizzle yesterday the light was amazing, the colours on the tree trunks, maybe?














Also photographed a scarf, to put in the Open Studio Book, I am sharing a studio with painting friends in Chatham Dock yard, a fascinating place so worth a visit without Open Studio, but that will add to the visit, starts June 4th, I know how quickly that will be here.

Snow Snow Snow! about a foot of it,the poor dog found it very hard work, she used to love it when young and fit.







But I am now in the warm watching a flock of Long tailed Tits on the bird table,they are little,pink/grey and fluffy , a Sparrow Hawk took a Tit the other day, sad but that is nature. We get a good selection of birds




Have been making hats using raw fleece look very Russian, can't take a picture as I sent them to a gallery,I wish I could make more time to work with raw fleece but life takes over, This Friday is HOPS Christmas lunch so must shop and cook for 70-80 folk.
