A last post for February

 I have mostly been quilting Red Manor House so no sewing to show today. And it has also taken me, mostly, away from my sketchbooks. However a couple of things to show. I added the watercolour of a (it seems we have at least three) wagtail to one of my sketchbooks.


and I finished the pencil drawing of same wagtail.


You may remember that last year we visited Taunton Minster to see The Moon.


Last week we visited Exeter Cathedral to see Gaia - The Earth.


Gaia rotates and is much bigger than The Moon. Both spectacular and well worth viewing. The blue lighting in Exeter Cathedral was also stunning.




Have a good week and I will see you again in March!

  13. Lovely pictures from the cathedral. I wish I could be as good with a pencil as I am with a needle; lucky you to have a variety.
