How lucky am I?


Hi dear friends,
Just a quick line to let you know that today was quite special. As you know our adopted cat Nelly has been with us since last August. Well finally today, after many sniffs around the studio, over a lengthy period, she decided to make herself comfy.
I always think that an animal at peace in the studio is a very good sign. Well this morning she got to listen to Bach and Handel for hours and actually started snoring!!!! I won't tell her though, she might get embarrassed.



This is what I made whilst she dreamt on the seat. Silk paper cut into leaves.



Hand stitching still progressing...........................


Boy oh boy I love the macro facility on the camera - it is particularly useful for studying stitching.


A blissfully cool night - I am away to my bed..........................................

Lots of love to everyone

  2. Hi, I am Gabriele from Germany. You are listed on my blog boridesign.blogspot.com Last week I bought a felting kit and now I am waiting for the wonderful colours...I like your cat. I had a cat, too, which died after 16 years last year and he normally sleeped in my workroom and he is listening my classical music. I am following your work, because I like it so much.
    Regards Gabriele
