As I said, my new friend in Anglesy asked if I could paint some of her pets … past and present . I think we both enjoyed the results .
I know I’ve posted about this before but people who I paint for don’t usually send me photos back like these … I was delighted !

Here they are … some I really thought were a good portrait ! They’re her babies … she’s going to love every one !

This news is quite exciting and a little bit nerve wracking … I’m going to be the guest artist ( haha… I’m more of a Nana that crafts ) at “The Little Whitby Potter” on Silver Street in Whitby.
Some of my needle felts are going to be on display in the shop and I’m going to do demonstrations ( again lol!) of how I work ( haha). I’m also offering Workshops so anyone who wants to can be tutored by me ( hahahaaa) to produce their own piece in the actual shop. I taught an American lady how to needle felt one time ; she did really well in very little time and produced two really nice pieces using some of mine as a guide and myself for advice and pointers. Have you ever fancied “painting” with wool ? It’s very relaxing and the sense of achievement is amazing ! Get in touch with me … give it a go ! Xx

It’s been a bird kind of week … it started when someone saw the budgies I’ve been knitting and asked for a hand knit canary for their dad’s Dementia memory box …. An apricot coloured one . This led to a yellow one , a Blue tit, a Long tailed tit , a Goldfinch, a Chaffinch and finally a Robin.

I also knit a cat for Emma who had befriended a stray , Little Arthur. She so missed him when he died that she asked me to try to knit a Yarn Arthur . The cat hole left by Arthur is now not so empty once Yarn Arthur had arrived .

I’ve been knitting budgies mainly … in fact almost solidly for about ten days ! Owners would send me photos of their former and present budgies and I would do my best to replicate them with yarn and my tiniest knitting needles . I’m quite pleased with the results … but more importantly so were the budgie owners.

I have finally finished the Rainbow jumper for my daughter . This is my take on the Seaglass jumper that puts to use all your bits of wool that are too small to knit anything . It’s reduced my stash of bits … making room for more wool ! Double win ! Triple win actually as Eve now has a jumper that is long enough to keep her back warm when doing her Seaglass jewelry markets.

I’ve also been knitting … as I always am ! My new friend Lucie asked me to knit an Eeyore … so I did … actually I knit three . Two of which now reside in Eastbourne. It was a joy to see him take shape each time ( pattern courtesy of Claire Garland ) .
