I like Dr who, Snoopy/Peanuts, sewing, quilting, EPP & bag making, photography, cats and being kind. Two of my favourite quotes for life are 'Run Fast; Laugh Hard; Be Kind' and ' What's the point of being grown up, if you can't be childish sometimes'.

Dipoy in London. Dipoy the Diplodocus, used to have pride of place in the front hall of the Natural History Museum. When replaced by the skeleton of a giant whale, Dippy went on tour of the UK, before taking up residence the Museums entrance garden. #London #dinosaures #photography

A pub sign for a very exclusive London Pub. The Cross Keys Pub is within the Tower of London and only open to the Yeoman Body (Beefeaters), Tower staff and invited dignitaries I would love to go in for just one pint.

Went on a Stitchtopia quilting weekend retreat a few weeks back and learned an interlocking pattern, with different colours for each 'round'. This is a small lap, for a cat to sit on, using the design. It's got thin wadding and a fleece back. #quilt #quilting #patchwork #stitchtopia #knotwork

Finished this crib / lap quilt. It's a gift for a work colleague who is expecting a boy and is a West Ham fan. These are the only plain blue and redish fabrics I had. Giving it to them today, hope they like it #quilt #quilting #patchwork #Hammers

Silhouette of spring Taken early afternoon in Tailgate Park. This tree seems to be refusing to accept spring is on the way, as not a leaf bus to be seen. #photography #nature #trees

Duck race in Cheddar Gorge. My duck did not win.
People line the banks of a narrow stream, counting down three people throwing around 200+ yellow ducks into the river.  Two men stand in the river to help move along any rubber ducks caught in the weeds.The yellow rubber ducks slowly race down the river, cheered on by the crowd.The rubber ducks have difficulty getting over a small waterfall, so the duck wranglers outside them over.All the yellow rubber ducks are caught in a net, at the finish line and retrieved, whilst the crowds lining the river bank cheer .

Through a church window. This image is not manipulated, it is a photo of the inside of an old English Church, through the leaded window from an outsider. It captures both the pews inside and the reflection of the trees behind me. #photography.

This spider is actually only a few cm long, but close up the detail of its colouring and leg spikes is beautiful. #photography #spiders #nature.
