Back at The Allendale Forge Studios today and have updated my pitch.

Now you can buy any 5 cards for the price of 4. This means you can buy a mix of large and small cards if you wish, but you will only get the cheapest free.

I am trialling this to see how this goes. If

Meanwhile, there's something new in the Gallery this month - ceramics! And they are stunning. Great quality pieces and perfect for Father's Day, Engagement, Weddings and Birthday gifts.

Cards and gift wrap are also available within the Gift Shop too.

At the moment, I am listening to Ant and Dec's podcast and it lifts me first thing in the day while I am making.
The only issue I have is that I laugh so much that stops me from needle felting. I don't want to have an accident with the needles and my fingers!

So what do you listen to?

This is me.

Natural me.

In the environment I love best.

When this photo was taken by I was too busy noticing the two Canada Geese honking and flying at each other. It was a bit windy and it had started to rain again, not that it bothered me, but I didn't want to be blamed for anything going wrong with the photography equipment.

I thought this type of photo would be perfect to share with you as this is truly me. No make up. Hair tied up. At my happiest. At my comfiest. And this is how you would see me most days, probably talking to my surroundings, possibly foraging too.

Thank you goes to Sarah for her amazing photography. I don't like having my photo taken but she knows how to make you comfortable (plus it didn't help that I kept turning away laughing at and watching the geese's antics).
