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…

On to November!

Oh my! Where did October go? Mind you, if I spend a little time looking back through, it was a good month. John and I spent a lot of time pottering around, slower than normal, starting to put the garden to bed for the winter, always quite a long chore anyway. We have some huge…

July the Beginning

I’ve decided to join in with the Faby Riley Stitch-A-Long Jacquie which started at the end of last month. I know I have many other projects on the go but this one intrigued me and I’ve wanted to do a Faby for a while. Variety is the spice and all that! From the get go…

A Quick Zoom Away

Once we’d checked our bags in and Elsa had gone off I went and had breakfast and decided to walk from Trafalgar Square over to Victoria and Shepherd’s Bookbinders.…

No Stitch but Paint

John and I have done a lot of travelling, mostly BW (before Willow) and I have never really taken advantage and been one of these people who sketch and paint it all. It's something I've always felt guilty about. The sketchbook is packed but it comes back unopened. I do, however, have lots of stitched…

Some Actual Stitch

When I was at Kingcombe I saw one of the ladies with an amazing little bag. She couldn’t remember the name of the pattern at the time but I managed to find it in the end. It’s a cracking little bit of kit called the Bionic Gear Bag, or BGB. It’s a very neat tabletop…
