Some Away and an Exhibition

We’ve been back to our beloved Pembrokeshire, our home from home, the only place we considered as a moving too place. The land of half my fathers. It was Gwyn’s first holiday and she was a little cautious at first. But she soon found her paws! We met up with friends and their Pointers, one…

April Round Up

I've been meaning to write a blog post for ages but just haven't done it. I thought I'd better try and do one before the end of the month at least. First a quick round up of Crochet-a-Longs and Stitch-a-Longs. The Stitching Cabin Nordic Winter SAL is now up to band 4. I'm using a…

Spring is Springing

As I'm sure you can imagine most time this past month has been taken up with Gwyn. Teaching her the basics before she knows different is quite a chore. She has tried the pre wash cycle already. At the beginning of the month I signed up to Laura Kemshall's 31 days of Art Journaling. I…

Long Time No Blog!

Thank you for the messages especially concerning John and his treatment. We did the full thing of hospital PCR tests, isolating and…

Twixtmas 2021

I've started on one half with some leftover threads, the other half will be neutral colours. Don't know where it's going but…

December Almost There

I managed to finish off the last of the silk thrums with two more bowls and a couple of placemats. What I was most happy about is that a good sized carrier bag of stuff just sitting in the way is now used up and useful!! Well I had the smallest amount left which went…

A Catch-up Round-up.

These past couple of months have been extremely hard. Having to make the decision for Ellie when she was still so bright in herself nearly totally broke me. John is still struggling with balancing his meds to have some sort of life. Breathing is often quite a challenge for him especially first thing in the…

Fair Well My Princess

Today we said goodbye to the most perfect of dogs, Ellie. She had so much pride and dignity she was reliable, a great, trustworthy companion and only ever wanted to be with you and please. Run free my Perfect Princess, go find Ruger and snuggle up. It was an honour to be owned by you…
