My blog is my way of showing love of most things, in particular art and craft work. My work is quick, not pain-stakingly perfect - there is too much else going on to worry about perfection. My main blog is eclectic. My Sub-Blogs specifically show my different arts and crafts.

Big Snowy Owl
This was an incredibly quick and easy project to knit up - mind you, it is EXTREMELY large. If I was going to redo it I would use the same chunky yarn but instead of a size 12mm needle I would probably go down to a 10mm to make it a tighter knit. Anyhow, it is sitting on my bed very alert.

Sunset
Went out with my photography group last night and took photos of the sunset from a field in the middle of no where. The sunset was spectacular, and magically appeared and disappeared just as fast.
Note to self - must wear sleeves next time I do a night shoot so I don't get eaten by mozzies!

Zombie
This is one of my favourite Zombie photos, taken two weekends ago. This Zombie was extremely tall (I'm assuming he was on stilts) but I wasn't not game to either get up close to have a look, nor ask him.
I have also entered the photo in a weekly competition found at http://www.iheartfaces.com

Art Yarn - Beehives
They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery. ..........
After spinning a skein of beehive yarn I was wondering what to do with it - I didn't think there was enough for a hat - and then I remembered seeing beehive yarn in a frame. I thought I would also try to do this - I'm sorry I can't remember where I saw it or who originally made it, to give the credit where it is due, but who ever you are rest assure I made this only for my benefit and not to sell.
Here is my beehive yarn before and displayed in the frame -
