Headless bleatings

You've heard of headless chickens? These are the first six of 22 key rings a customer ordered, sold in aid of the Marie Curie fund.

The pattern is Widdle Fat Sheepy by Pooky Crafts.It's a clever pattern, and when they get heads the sheep are really cute.

 Caroline is making jelly babies and gingerbread men and cats: photos to follow.

Caroline is one of the two sisters who took over the running of the shop after their mum Christine died.

Caroline likes to 'fiddle' and it's always fun to see what she is experimenting with. She has a magic eye for colour, and the faces she puts on her creations are brilliant.





This little cutie is made with yarn she dyed herself.
Once our fund-raiser is over she is going back to dyeing yarn.








In Bournville just now everywhere is awash in spring blossom. I haven't seen any ducklings yet, but the adult ducks are on their strange migrations. They are intelligent and know how to use the crossing, while residents are trained to stop for them. These 2 were outside Christine's recently.



The photo was taken by Julie: you can meet her next time.
