good friday

We wanted to take it easy this week-end... we just have so much to do... yikes!
proper update soon... I promise

doing well - feeling fine

So sorry that I haven't updated here... I've been sick for so long and my surgery 12 weeks ago was one huge step in feeling better. Before I had no energy to do a thing... Now there isn't enough time in the day to do all that I want to do! I'm still sore around the incision (and I have a nasty scar) But I feel great otherwise.

I've been keeping myself busy with some knitting, crocheting, baking, designing and taking part in a few swaps.... These bird nest are a simpler version of a best and branch pin that I made way back in 2004... The eggs are made out of freshwater pearls... I made 34 of these for the ArtErratica Valentine Swap I should get about 33 back...

Tonight is chick flick nite... Devils wears Prada was released yesterday and my darling husband bought me a copy... He is so sweet... and he is willing to watch it with me... what a doll

*twinkle*

Wow! Where have I been?

We've been so busy the last few months... A lot has happened (and is still happening) but we are ok :)

Peter has just finished showing at The Inspired Art Fair and did rather well... I'll be in the hospital for 5 days (hysterectomy) not really looking forward to that... I'm 34 and we wanted children... But it has too be done :(

We plan on having a quite Christmas and New Year (it will take about 6 weeks for my recovery) a lot of DVD's good food and gentle walks for exercise hopefully we'll get snow

:)

anti summer

So we are well into summer... we've had our hot days and very rainy days... Wimbledon has kicked off (I prefer to watch the final matches) the World Cup is full swing. I hate summer... I'm more an Autumnal/Winter type person... I love wearing turtle necks heavy tights with my skirts and scarves... I love wearing scarves... I love Halloween and I love watching Hockey...

sigh... oh well

I've been rather busy working in the little studio (I really should get a new window blind) making tin heart pins (see pic above), working on my portfolio, applying to galleries, making mini books, completing my websites...

later...

winged heart

it's been rather quiet here in winggleam studios... Well it doesn't help having a head cold... very painful indeed. I have been tinkering at the coffee table and made my self a crude little pin.

This pin really makes me happy. I love winged hearts... Actually I love wings! I might make a few more and sell them... mmmm
