The last few days in pictures

I made a collage of he last few days, the class with Dale Rollerson and what I managed to do when I got home, placing stuff in my notebook and trying out a few things Dale told us about and I didnt have time to do at the class. These went into a lovely notebook I bought from Ro Bruhn when I did her class in Melbourne. I am slowly filling it up. I have been having fun doing extra stuff and using some of the sprays and paints I have had for ages. We have walked a couple of times, this morning, Australia Day, was cold and damp down here and we decided not to go into the celebrations this morning as I was feeling pretty tired, the first time since John was made Mayor and then our local Australian of the year, which is getting to be a while ago now. John and I have been getting a flat pack fowl house together, enough said!! The curses and carry on was horrendous and I should never do this, whats more its pretty flimsy so I just hope it survives. Any way we walked the cliffs this morning and it was a bit blustery and cool but a lovely walk. As well as that I have been trying out a few felt bird patterns, to see what I might like to go as Christmas presents next year to go with my pear trees. Not entirely happy with either of these so I am still making patterns. Something to keep me out of mischief when I am feeling tired. If you double click the photo it should enlarge.

Wonderful to be in touch, Penny. I have missed your photos and stories. I finally got a new computer, this week, and can navigate through blogs, again. I have been rumbling through on a dying machine for some years.

These photos are lovely. And especially the enlargement. Good to hear about your walks, again.

Hi P - looks like you had a lot of creative fun at the course. Great collage. The flat pack sounds like a lot of hard work. Go well. B
