Curly the highland coo is a gift for someones mum who's been very poorly of late and Kuzo the Herdwick sheep is up on my craft room wall as a memorial piece to one of my favourite but now sadly passed @mossburnfarm residents

My latest Powertex project

When I pick flowers for pressing they usually end up in my pocket so I thought why not embroider some peeking out of my new cardigan pocket

Made this one for me 🧶🧵🪡

Visit to Threave

One of the hares in the field this morning

A few shots from my wander around Kirkcudbright yesterday

What a way to end February still in shock this morning. Trump is so full of greed and malevolence he wouldn't be believable as a comic book villain!
Hmm maybe I need to start marking monthly progress with my temperature blanket in world events rather than flowers.

I dared to open the patio doors to this yesterday morning. It was cold, bright, frosty with a gentle mist hovering at the bottom of the hill and oh it was so lovely to see that blue sky

I've been busy 😁

On the workbench today a little rustic clay 🐳 soap dish and a first attempt at dried flower embroidery 🪡

Very happy with our new lamp from Stave32. The range and quality of talent from small independent businesses here in Dumfries and Galloway is incredible.

Short break back to Essex to visit family on the back of my bi monthly trip to the office. Sunny skies for a walk around Maldon

My first attempt at embroidering my own design. I've learnt lots for next time but may give my poor fingers a rest before I try another one! 🐮

So long and farewell to this basket full of little lovelies this morning. They're on their way to @mossburnfarm where they'll be helping to raise much needed funds 🐑🐮🐑🐮🐑🐮

Sharing some of my needle felting by way of an introduction ❤️ I also enjoy wet felting, knitting, crochet, flower pressing, Powertex, embroidery and photography

I've not shared this glasses case before as it was a commissioned gift of a beloved and much missed dog, the very handsome Buster ❤️

My windowsill has become a production line of Highland Coos awaiting their head attachments and Sheep awaiting their head floof!!
Big shout out to @felts_by_philippa for her wonderful tutorials and Mossburn Community Farm where these little cuties will be heading to raise much needed funds ❤️
