A short break in Cornwall

Mullion Cove, Cornwall

Coverack Harbour, Cornwall

Well, having spent four days last week at a beautiful fishing cove in Coverack, Cornwall, staying in a wonderful Youth Hostel, I am now back in full swing again with ideas for more making. I have spent the last 2 days dyeing bits of fabric and embellishing a bowl from scrap upholstery fabric. I am trying out new ideas that constantly buzz around inside my head!

Also I have made my first art quilt!...if you can call it that?....do let me know? I am rather pleased with it as i am not a quilter but have always wanted to do one. This measures 8inches square approximately, so it is only a little one! The image is the one of my earlier photos (shown on my blog pages) of my poppy head which i played around with on the computer and turned it into a psycadelic poppy!
