I have had a very frustrating week with no internet and no 'phone but we are, once again, in the land of the telephonically connected and I can update this blog. I wanted to put on photos of the things I'm taking to the Vintage Bazaar at Hartley Wintney tomorrow - better late than never ....
... pretties on a pink theme ....
I just love this chocolate box: a crinoline lady done in ruched ribbon with embroidered flowers!
And things on a theme of green ...
Wooden dogs ...
Wooden people ...
... and carved lumps of wood. Now I just have to get it all in the Yeti.
During the summer holidays my mind was doing its usual flightly flitting from project to project, unable to settle, like an unshriven soul. The result is the next clutch of knitted birds which hatched over the summer holidays. We are lucky enough to live within a flea hop of the Thames and often spend a weekend afternoon strolling along the tow path so the inspiration here is water fowl ...
The knitted swan now has a signet.
A knitted sitting duck.
And a knitted flying duck. Be careful how you say that.

It was lovely to meet you yesterday at the vintage bazaar and I enjoyed having a good natter. I have just finished spending all the proceeds of yesterday at a textile fair! Hopefully see you again sometime.
