it is a great advantage

this is the piece that I worked on while doing the "rook"......always work on more than one thing so I can go back and forth when things aren’t quite going right on one.......then switch back after a little time away

I also have some new backgrounds drying and ready to start tomorrow too

I only have until this Thursday to get everything done

Friday, I am off to Suffolk to visit the in-laws and then Monday morning, I fly off to the States to see my parents again

you can’t really see, but the background are sheets of music........hopefully the notes and things will show up a bit better when it is dry

and this is a.......what is this?? one of those sets of embroidered linens people used to put onto their dressing tables - there are usually two end pieces and a larger one for the centre.......think this is the centre part, altho it isn’t that large

ANYWHO........am thinking a little goldfinch might look sweet on here

my Dad, if his platelets are strong enough, will have his last super-strong chemo today and next week when I am there, will be his last chemo........he has been doing amazingly well and hope it continues (I feel a bit strange writing about it..so think I’ll stop)

oh! I went for a walk along the river last evening.......and saw a seal!! sitting on a little dock - I have heard about him.......he comes up the river every now and again

if I figure out where I put the cord to get the photos off my phone - will post!

such an odd sight

hope everyone is having a good week so far

and thank you, thank you for stopping by!
