A few weeks ago I finished 2 woolly mammoth illustrations! I've wanted to draw a woolly for a while now & I'm so happy with how cosy & safe these 2 little kids look. If you listen carefully you can hear the muffled thud of Woolly's steps as he slowly makes his way, with a sleigh of Christmas goodies to my Etsy shop.
Estimated arrival date 1st November!
The lovely Catherine from Woolly Mammoth Toys is going to use them as a logo for her shop and look what she sent me in return.
wwooooooweeeeeeeeee..........how pretty is this tutu, its for a 6 year old, but I have been holding it up to my waist and of twirling around the bedroom regardless!
Also these adorable pirates, which are going to make a little boy I know very happy indeed. Thanks Catherine.
Russ and I went to West Sussex for the first time at the weekend, it is such a beautiful part of the world, I'm already planning my next visit.
We stayed at Castle Cottage B&B which I can't recommend highly enough, we hired the barn, but next time we are going to stay in the tree house nestled in a huge chestnut tree. Saturday was spent in Arundale, Antique/ junk!!! shopping. I bought this wooden box (I love anything with drawers) and a beautiful sampler stitched by Ruth Knight way back in 1884.
I love the mammoths! We're going to be visiting your etsy shop again very soon as my youngest daughter is in love with your work too! Arundel is great isn't it, it's all very beautiful round there and you had such lovely weather as well. Come and visit Sussex again soon!
