Indebted to the local bird watcher who confirmed that the wader I saw was a little egret. I began this watercolour but had to stop, as being in a field I wasn’t sure if it was a little or a cattle egret. Onwards …

This lovely piece speaks to me of winter … is it the colours?

High winds and 19mm of rain came with the first named storm for this generation of young ewe lambs! A little bewildered, but shaking like wet dogs, and glad of some dry matter, they are all fine! #theanclarflock

learning where Greenland is while slow stitching. This map fleece is an unfinished Christmas gift from last year, so this cold snap has been perfect for “getting it done”

My latest food love - Greek salad. Yes! Even in this cold weather it’s just SO yum

With just six weeks until lambing time, and the twin bearing ewes are in the shed, this shepherdess is anticipating wet weather which will mess up the pasture, so they might as well be “home and dry”! This little lamb is one I made, you can see details here theanclarflock.etsy.com/listing/1851...

Happy New Year to all!!

Any proof readers here?? would love your ideas on this description… theanclarflock.etsy.com/listing/1871...

Lil bit of Boxing day designing …

Well scanning was a bit of a shock - the same number of ewes as last year, just 25 will be having eleven more lambs than last year! It’s going to be busy!

Scanning Christmas Eve, and I am reminded of the work to come! This little lamb is Pollen (Polly for short). She is now nearly a year old and is friendly, confident and calm - a credit to the flock! #theanclarflock

Octopus is in the news!!! 🐙

On the shortest day, have cheer - the light will return! This photo was given to me a few days ago by my friend Clare Nettleton. It shows winter sun lighting up the window I made for Grace’s Room, at Williton Hospital, Somerset. It is of Exmoor …
