Here , is the little kingfisher I had for my birthday this year. It's hand made by a man who lives on Purbeck. He made the bird from Yew and the base from Oak, my two favourite woods. We went to pick him up from Knitson where he carves them and he looks very handsome in our lounge I think. (the bird, not the man!)
Next to his famhouse is this old barn and it just shows that creativity can anywhere, even in a rural working enviroment. The cows, cat and churn are all painted on the wall. Click on the picture for a better look.
This is just a peek at the latest quilt I am making, it's an order for a new baby that is due in September.
