I found this photo yesterday, in a drawer whilst looking for something else. It was still in the envelope that it was sent to me in. This was taken some 10 or 12 years ago & was a long distance ride of 25 miles from Duncton & surrounding countryside. (I must have been fit in those days) It did bring back some lovely happy memories especially as I had lost this little horse 2 years ago.
What was I looking for in the drawer? can't remember, so obviously didn't find it!!!!

This chap has been made from fur fabric, given to me by a friend. He stands at 17" & is, as yet, unnamed. He is 5 way cotterpin jointed with safety eyes & polyfilled. His pads, paws & inner ears are Alpaca handmade felt.

While most of my blog is dedicated to the bears that I make, I do also paint. This I started a few years ago with the Narrowboat style. I then moved onto my own design of blue/white, which is very popular. I now do as well, the above, which is also proving to be very popular. I will take some photos of the blue/white & post them for you to see.

Rain, rain & more rain, still I suppose it is a good excuse to stay in & paint or finish a new bear I am in the middle of making. Or perhaps some housework aghhhhh!!!!
