Snap cats


These cats all live locally - I see them when I'm out walking or out of my kitchen window.  I don't know the name of any or where they live.

The black and white one is often sitting under than tree - I suspect it is a dry and cosy spot.

The tabby and white looking startled is sitting on my compost bin and was watching me warily as I opened my window to capture they shot - they seem to use this as a staging post before going over the wall into the next door garden - I suspect to 'watch' the birds she feeds

The sleeping tabby was enjoying a spot of sunshine and seemed unperturbed by people walking by.

The two on the fence I saw at the end of the garden - I think they were disputing whose spot that is.

Looking forward to seeing the visual sets you have noticed and captured this week

Memorandum Monday with pom poms

I've been playing with pom poms



using a pom pom maker for the first time - way easier than with bits of card like we used to.  Some are fuller than others because I was experimenting with size and fullness.

I added them to the bottom of a decorative strip I had crocheted

using a pattern for lace but with bigger hook and yarn.


Having just taken down my winter / snowman wreath I needed a spring decoration - before I put up my summer bunting.

At the talk of knitting I was at last week they were giving away some wool and I chose a small ball in these 5 colours because I thought they made a good spring palette - at the time I wasn't sure how I would use them. 

A big pompom wave to you all and hope you have a good week

Snap the shore line

I'm always fascinated watching and snapping people walking along the beach and have a liking for a near silhouette against a big sea.  Here is a collection of 4 from a recent visit to the beach when the tide was out - of course people and dogs still walk along the water line - even with a baby buggy


What visual sets have you noticed this week? loving the range and variety
