I've been away
I've been away for most of the past week, and now I am catching up with housework, blogging, etc. While I was away, I did make a little time to do some sketching, and will post some later on. In the meantime, I can report that I have a new drawing pen for out and about - looking forward to trying it out today!

Sewing is fun
When I was idly doodling in my sketchbook yesterday morning, I found myself drawing some new pieces of fabric all ready for sewing into something lovely. The inspiration for this came earlier last week from a friend showing me some gorgeous materials she had bought from www.reprodepot.com. Then I remembered my plan to use the rest of the pretty pink butterfly fabric (from the pump bag I made for one of my nieces) to make a new cushion cover: so here it is all finished! I'm glad I used some time yesterday to make it - sewing is such fun.

What I've been up to
I've just begun working on the colours for the cat and stars - features a tiny amount of Winsor & Newton's anniversary "smalt" watercolour!
Amazing that my last post here was 12th May! A couple of events have interupted my regular posts here: firstly, I changed internet service provider, so have been spending hours updating my email contact details. Secondly, and far more exciting, I was preparing for and attending an interview to do an MA in Children's Book Illustration. Now I'm waiting to hear whether I've been accepted - I'd forgotten how nerve-wracking that part of the process is. Anyway, fingers crossed.
