Bluebells at Heysham

Took new stock to Greenlands Farm Village & stopped in Heysham to look at the Bluebells.What a display on an atmospheric misty day! Beautiful flowers,lovely perfume & Heysham is one of my favourite places.

Acorn pics

The clever people at Eden Arts took a picture of my acorns so I can add this thanks to them!There are some really beautiful exhibits in the Woollen Woods exhibition & some funny & quirky ones as well!

Woollen Woods exhibition

I've sent some knitted acorns & oak leaves to Eden Arts canopy project exhibition at Sizergh Castle.My acorns are 'seasonal' Spring,Summer,Autumn,Winter versions & I realize I should have taken pictures before sending them ---- too late now!The exhibition is entitled The Woollen Woods' & runs from April 12th to September 1st.There should be all sorts of woolly creatures & vegetation decorating the the trees ladybirds,owls,bats fungi etc.I thought as Sizergh is a National Trust property my acorns & oak leaves would be appropriate.Hope to visit the exhibition & hunt out my acorns & take a picture of them in situ!

Wool display in Morecambe

Here is a nice picture of Lancashire Farm Wool displayed by Vicky in the window of The Little Shop of Hobbies in Morecambe.Tastefully draped over a lovely chunk of driftwood fished out of Morecambe Bay! Perfectly suited to the 'natural look'!
