Masks from Northern Canada

























Diane and myself have got together and have made these masks inspired by the Craftsmen of Northern Canada.

Binding my Indian Journal


I have been busy stitching up my Indian journal ready to mount all my samples.
If you colour your pages with Indian spices like I did, it looks lovely and smell delicious but it will make you sneeze ! the chilli seems to hang around for ages. Also, wear gloves because if you touch your eyes with chilli fingers they WILL burn.
My work room now smell like an Indian take a way !
I am off now to make some lunch all this work has made me hungry

What a fright

Heard strange noises in my hall, it sounded alive!
Frightened to death and after an upheaval search found out that it was the Christmas wreath rubbing the front door in this high wind.
That's it, the decs have got to come down !

Needle felted seal


This is my first attempt at felting this cute little seal. I think I need to practise on a whole colony. But, he does make me smile, so must be granted the seal of approval.
