Minion hat

Here is the last one, stocking fillers for grandchildren, I have 10 altogether the youngest two are 5 and the eldest is 21. I made two of these for the youngest ones. I found the pattern on You Tube, the name of the lady escapes me just now but if you search for minion hat hers is the first one that comes up. I've managed to make him look really fed up.




Watercolour - Unfinished failure

Hello again

Just two more pictures to post. I love watercolour but I have a lot to learn, any half decent ones I have given away and not kept a record of them I just have a few practice pieces that might end up in the recycling pile. This one is more of a sketch for a bigger piece. Yet again it's one of my grandchildren and, as we say in Lancashire, she had a real cob on. One of her friends had snatched something from her and the scowl was glorious, what you can't see from this sketch is that she is in a Disney princess ball gown, complete with tiara, which will all be in the final picture if I ever get down to it. It still makes me smile though xx

 I have been trying to add more than one picture per post, but the second one is always cut off, I can't drag them, just resize and move them left, right or centre. Think I need read up some more on this. I wonder if you can make a gallery somehow?


Another day, another dollar

Hello
Having looked at other blogs this one looks extremely plain, still first things first, I will upload a couple more pictures.

New blogger

Hello
I love arts and crafts, and recently started to enter a monthly design challenge which is hosted by Claritystamp.co.uk. I noticed most other entrants did so by using their blogs, whereas I emailed my picture in and a lovely lady called Sazz created a temporary blog for my entry. I thought I better bite the bullet and have a go at creating my own blog, I will upload a few pictures of things I created last year to see if it works. (Just looking for a help button).

This is a pencil portrait of Enya one of my grandchildren.  I don't seem to have room for the other photos, will publish this to see if it works and take a look to see if you have to add pages or something. Take care xx
