I can change my clock in the car but has anyone worked out how to put the cat back an hour?

Had a trial run today of making paper pumpkins for the craft classes Used strips of Halloween. Autumn and coffee themed craft paper with twisted tissue stalk and leaves #SeniorCrafting

Report writing a little delayed this morning

Timed our trip well, it's Louth's Food and Drink Festival. Rain didn't dampen people's spirits

I've been really slack posting the crafting we've been doing in the Residential Care Homes this year. I'm going to rectify that so I'm working backwards... September: Autumn wreaths & dreamcatchers 🧶

My next set of crochet classes start 4 October. Contact The Wool Haven, Glasgow for further details.

It's lovely waking up to another crochet class review. 🧶 And I promise there's no manic laughter when I pull back someone's work. 😁

"September! I never tire of turning it over in my mind. It has warmth, depth, and color. It glows like old amber." Patience Strong #Journalling

A sunny day after the rain. Started with a slight autumnal chill which means it's time to re-start the crochet classes at The Wool Haven #MHHSBD #CraftBizParty

James is annoyed that we won't let him outside in the storm and has spent ALL DAY in his feeding cubbyhole #JamieCat

At the end of my week off and it's flown by. I'm finishing the post new bathroom cleaning blitz with the Terry Pratchett bookshelf (or shrine as it's generally referred to) You never realise how many books you have until you have to dust them

@briever.bsky.social Just checking you're ok? Haven't seen you around here or in the other place for ages

Just listed 10 shining new labradorite pendants - who wants to take home their very own glow? I need to make rent this week and it's my birthday the week after, so I'm hoping for a little Bluesky magic. oishiny.etsy.com Free international shipping included. #DisabledArtist #Helpsky #💕💸

I was aiming to make yoghurt but the milk was "on the turn" and I think I've got cottage cheese. Tastes like it

A little something for 'Summer Daze'. This is an original abstract artwork of wildflowers, that has a hazy summer feel to it. The original will be looking for a home when the shop reopens. #BlueSkyArtShow #OriginalArt #MHHSBD #Nature

Water marbling next month in the craft classes so I thought it was about time I had a practice. The messy ones have less paint, so in this case more is better. #CareHomeCraft #SeniorCrafts

Happy 16th Birthday #JamieCat

“July, with its days of blue skies and time that seemingly stands still, holds a special place in my heart.” Daisaku Ikeda Or an alternative with my actual reaction of "How the hell is it July already" #Journalling

*does happy dance*

I'd stopped making yoghurt as my milk thermometer had broken. So I winged it last night and success! Strained off the whey so obviously had to make scones. "For science" I baked 2 in the air fryer. Slightly darker but same crumb. Next to try is freezing unbaked scones so I can bake as required.

Not sure whether to label these as craft or garden... 🧶🌱 I started the delayed annual repotting of my houseplants today. I knew the pothos needed a new support system so I've macramed 3 hoops together which can hang from the picture rail. It's a little wonky but it looks better than I hoped.

One last post for #InternationalPortraitDay A little collage of a few of my portrait artworks which are hand embroidered. #HandEmbroidery #portraiture #FigurativeArt

Had a lovely few hours at The Witches Cove Market Glasgow yesterday's. Some great stalls with old and new favourites. Time for me to follow some more accounts You can take the girl from #ScottishCraftHour etc. 😂

Start of the next beginners crochet class this morning so time to introduce the crochet left hand . 🧶 This is the bit where it feels like I'm inducting acolytes into a secret society. 🧙🏼‍♀️ Doesn't help that we wave a wand while muttering under our breath 🪄

Whoop whoop 🙌🏼 Another 5 star review for the Beginner's Crochet Class 🧶 #MHHSBD

Good morning 🥱 Come for a wee drive with us on the Kintyre peninsula 🚗 Hope everyone has a great Sunday 💙 #Scotland #StormHour

Current WIP…”The Farm”. #textileart #rughooking #embroidery #proddy #beading #appliqué

The spiral on this 🌱 is something else.

Despite the lack of motivation I did push to get back to the wip I’ve had on the go for months. Self doubt creeps its way in when I’ve been on such a long break. Here’s the finished painting, with birdsong. Inspired by the cosmos ✨ and the wonders within it #art #painting #artsky #sciart

Hollyhock's tall spires look good grown against walls and fences and are stalwarts of cottage gardens. My new drawing is now available to buy... theweeowlart.etsy.com/listing/4299... #Hollyhock #Flower #bloomscrolling #OriginalArt #Drawing #Artwork #bsnm #ArtFromScotland #GiftIdeas #ArtShop

Handmade, hand painted clay banana. You can use this as a trinket dish or an ornament, whatever you prefer, size wise it's the size of a small banana. You can find it at my etsy shop link below. earthandsandbyanna.etsy.com/listing/1222... #banana #MHHSBD #ArtShop #bsnm #May #handmadeshop

What do you mean I can't come in? That just washed floor is perfect for muddy paws

Good morning from Dumfries & Galloway Not a bad sunrise this morning 🌞 #MHHSBD

Unbound did precisely fuck-all PR for my book when it came out, despite promises. Didn't even send copies to the obvious people. It was a Brexit satire. Easiest sell on earth at the time. I wouldn't piss on Archna Sharma and John Mitchinson if they were on fire. Avoid their revived Boundless brand.

A bit of a drab background due to an overcast sky, but it was still nice to see this Great Horned Owl sitting high atop this dead tree. #wildlife #birds #owls
