Crochet ~ Little Oakley

Untitled

I'm really pleased with this guy in his little acorn cap. He's in issue 24 of Simply Crochet and I love how they've styled the photo, especially those big shiny conkers.
Autumn is the best.

Day 100! I did it! I seriously thought I'd miss a day and give up not far into this so I'm really chuffed that I've managed it.
I'm thinking about starting a new one after inktober. I just need to decide on a new theme.

Day 11

In September I'd thought about doing Inktober this year and then a few days into October I realised I hadn't started it and due to my weird little mind this meant I couldn't do it seeing as I wouldn't have the full set. About a week into October I figured I should just do it anyway and learn to cope with the fact there wouldn't be the full 31 days. So I am doing an ink drawing a day for October, I just started on the ninth rather than the first.
It wasn't until day 11 that I found the time to actually sit at a table with a brush. I love inking with a brush and in the back of my mind that is what I was thinking doing Inktober would help me with. Any extra drawing is good though so I'm pleased to have done the pen drawings too. Hopefully I'll get a few more brush drawings done by the end of the month.

What My Phone Saw ~ September

Working methodically as a team to devour our rose bush.

Beech masts and butterflies.

That little mouth kills me.

Doughnuts and tattoos. Living the dream. This is me being Will's first guinea pig besides himself and only his fourth tattoo. That's trust right there.

A couple of this month's thank you notes.

September

Untitled

Oh September, where did you go? September was the month of ruined routines. The main and completely awesome news is that Will got himself a tattoo apprenticeship which is nothing but brilliant. It was really hard work but it paid off and I'm so proud of him. It's odd though, we've gotten pretty used to seeing each other almost all of the time and now he's off out in the world learning to tattoo so we're seeing less of each other and our routines are all screwed up. For all the right reasons of course but it's always tiring to settle into something new. We've both had a pretty hectic month. My to do list just keeps getting bigger and even though I always feel like I'm not getting enough work done I also feel like I'm not doing anything else. Some things never change I guess.
Exciting times ^_^

Things this month:
These Etsy shops are worth a peek: solittletimeco, ChaComLetras, emandsprout, lOll3SHOP
This sushi bag is amazing.
These quilling pieces done by Yulia Brodskaya are amazing.
I love old Victorian photos showing people to be a bit more real than the average photos from the time, there are some pretty good ones here.
The screen grab with this tweet is all kinds of sad lovely.
And to end, here are some new super cute babies at Whipsnade. The red panda, the elephant and the giraffe.
