Drosera


At the weekend, I went on an enjoyable group walk to Downe Village. Everyone walked really fast and I somehow managed to be the last person in the pack everytime! This is a drawing I did in the greenhouse at Down House. I do love drawing plants growing in a greenhouse.

my first crochet blanket




I have finally learned to crochet after several attempts over a few years. It's not quite big enough to cover my bed yet but it still keeps me warm on the sofa. Thanks to ALL the wonderful friends who taught me. Such relaxing activity for an evening.

Childhood Camping Days


I have been reading Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott and it inspired me to draw things I remember from my early childhood.

let's make badges


Here are some lovely handmade brooches that we made on Friday. The red and white ones are martenitsas. My friends from Bulgaria made them. They are worn to celebrate the beginning of spring. There was some drawing and crochet action too. I also baked a lemon drizzle cake. It was a pleasant evening.
