Waist coat for a goat!

I don't really iron people sized clothes very much !

I love to work small and neat ... this is my brightest goat waist-coat yet ...

He likes it! Great!

Collaging at Cat's Porch ... come and see!

Book keeping again!

A Junior Mission Praise from a Weymouth school was greatly in need of some TLC, esp once I had stripped off all the parcel tape to see what I was working with ...

here is the heavy book put back together, and the spine supported externally with some blue fabric, left over from the cover ..

And here is the repaired and covered book, ready for the new term, we hope it lives for a long time now! The commissioner wanted Holy-Spirit Blue, with a bit of sparkle, so I used some silver and blue glitter-print fabric for the spine...

New bin?

My shiny pedal bin was no longer so nice and shiny, my frequent use of a spray cleaner over the loo had left it rather pock-marked. Another opportunity to get collaging!

Materials, old bin, PVA, old bible, gold paint and some acrylic varnish.
