Here is the finished carved owl, mounting into a pendant. The owl, fence and grass are boxwood, the frame is walnut.

Went to @queerbritain.bsky.social private view last night. This was the piece that hit the hardest.
Part of a quilt memorial to those who died during the HIV crisis.
Here's to one day revealing the beautiful life beneath this panel and celebrating him for who he was. X

Happy #NationalHedgehogDay 🥺
This little Egyptian faience model of a hedgehog is from a tomb at Abydos, and was made around 1,500–1,300 BCE.
Hedgehogs had a favourable reputation in ancient Egypt, and were often seen as a symbol of rebirth and renewal of life.

People think being disabled is like being on vacation
They say “you’re lucky! I wish I didn’t have to work!”
Most of us would love to work. We would love to get out of bed. We would love to not be forced into legislated poverty
Imagine your worst sick day on repeat forever
That’s chronic illness

1st February, daily stitching marking the passage of time. A rare weekend post, with some little snowdrops for #imbolc and the earliest signs of spring as the wheel turns.

Lately, I've been researching the life of Barbara Fea who was born in Stronsay some time* in the late 17th century.
Her story is one of power, legal process and, sadly, awful violence. Throughout this, she endures. I want to tell her tale.
* We'll return to her age in a bit because it's important.
