Foreground finished. Just a small section as it’s for an upcoming exhibition so is under wraps until then.

I thought I'd better start sewing in the ends on my #canalboatblanket. I've done 82 rows so far but I don't think I'll make it as long as the pattern because I'd prefer it to be square. I should have started sewing in the ends sooner - it's going to be a big job now 🤦🏻‍♀️ #crochet #canalboatblanketcal

#dinner #food #health trying to change the habit of a lifetime of high carbs loads of butter and cheese. I give you. Roasted veg in olive oil with oregano, chicken with Moroccan spices, passata, red wine, walnuts, dates, sultanas and a small portion of couscous. I had a heart attack so have to.

Good morning. Honestly this is one of my favourite pics. Summer insect life on an Atlantic cliff edge on our North Coast of Northern Ireland. Decided this was close enough for me. 😁 💛 #NatureLovers #photography #flowers #butterflies #Insects
