Taryn getting cheap thrills by grabbing a barnacled bottom!
then on the way back to the car, we spotted an orchid! 
Been up to all sorts in the sewing room - finished my toadstool for the swap, it is on it's way to Quebec Canada tomorrow, so can't post photo's just yet, and also finished my Kitchen item for another swap, and likewise can't show pickies yet, as it hasn't gone...but soon...!!!
made this little dog from my favourite book of the moment - I wish I could come up with stuff like this myself! - I love the expression on his face. 
I have just been tagged by Vintage KittyKat so here goes...
1) What was I doing 10 years age...
well, I was a single parent to a then 6 year old Taryn Tickle mouse. Full time mum, busy sewing clothes and house furnishings, doing a city and guilds in patchwork I never got around to finishing, and I was still in my 20's - what ever happened to them?

Hi Juicy!! I actually did this tag about a week ago so it's going to come to a grinding halt with me... unless I just pass it on to four other people?...

Ohh thanks for tagging me - I promise to do my Twiggy tag facts in next couple of nights. Yours were v.interesting lady ! I bet the Anthony Gormly figures were great, I'd love to visit them. I live down the road from the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and there's some of his stuff there.

Hi You! Just found you through Twiggy - so glad, I do love to hear about places near 'home', I use to live in Haslingden/Accrington, and I went to college in Clitheroe, and just love! Skipton!
I'm in sunny Anglesey now, but still a Northerner at heart.
I will be back for more.
Love the little dog - is he 'Snoopy'?

Hi, I love your blog!
I made one of those dogs but it's head is really wobbly. I made some of the bears out of the book too for a PIF. It's a great book.
