I've just finished this mugwort crowned, lunar hare goddess who wants to bring you sleep and lucid dreams.
She's called Selena Somnus, made from recycled fabric, embroidered and needle felted. Approx 12" tall.

This is a bust of my mum made by Anna Binns, when they were both 17, at school in 1964.
Incredible likeness, wish I owned it.
My mum now, aged 77.

I've been busy starting some luxury mari lwyd decorations today, made from proper hand woven Welsh blankets and lovely dusky red velvet.
Now, what the heck have I done with that vintage lace to finish them with ?🤔
They'll be available in my Etsy Shop, Brigante Arts, if I ever find it 🙂

Happy Krampusnacht everybody!
Guess which episode I'll be watching of Inside No9 this evening?.........🤔
followed of course by the film Krampus.
I hope you haven't been naughty, otherwise, prepare to get in that sack 😈
Have you been naughty or nice? 🤔

The first fae hare I've made in ages.
She's wool tweed and red velvet, needle felted, beaded and hand embroidered with fungi, foxglove and ferns.
Off to Ontario on Monday.

Since it snowed here (West Yorkshire) yesterday, I thought it appropriate to post a Cailleach embroidery that I did a few years ago.

Can you guess what it is yet?
Off to the studio to crack on with some fae hares, some mari lwyd and krampus decorations and trad yule stockings. Way behind this year due to the cursed flu......

Hello. I don't know what I am doing, as usual. So, here's a picture.
