A selection of little pieces I have been working on this week.

Ummmh, I wonder if those robins are really standing on those cats heads, or are those cats just dreaming?

I am getting ready for the Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair in Manchester.  4th -7th October. www.greatnorthernevents.co.uk/ 

Blowy Leaves

 

Although it has been a little breezy today it has been nothing like the image in this embroidery.
The sunny warm weather has been glorious and I am loving it, however I am not being entirely fooled by this sunshine as I have spied the trees and seen the leaves on the turn, they don't look as ragged in previous early autumn years but the tell tale signs of the season a-changing is there, so I am smugly ahead of the game as I start to make autumn themed pieces.

Chichester Embroiderers Guild

 

I spent a lovely day with some of the delightful, friendly and wonderfully talented stitchers of the Chichester Embroiderers Guild, and this is what every one made, in one day!! well done everyone.
We had a great day, lots of laughter and lots of delicious ginger cake to keep all our energy levels high.
Keep up all the good work, and I look forward to the next time we meet.
Thank you Hilary for your photographs.
happy stitching x
