A winner!

My, but it's Baltic here! I keep photographing Ben Sgritheal, but look at it, & us huddled in the dark under the hill ;)



Interesting ice tracks


The craft fair on Saturday was cancelled due to 'adverse weather' conditions - they might reschedule but I'm booked up! So instead my DH & I went to a print exhibition in the Isle Ornsay Hotel gallery An Talla Gearg. Pam Carter paints beautiful big vibrant pieces, travelling all over the Western Isles but based in Glasgow. She'd invited a jeweller & sculptor friend, a local leather maker & the next door tweed & jumpers shop to show with her & as I went to the opening instead of the fair I was asked if I'd like to add a couple of driftwood mirrors & some cards to the mix. So I did. My first few pieces in the local gallery! Something out of nothing ;)

So, to the winner. I was going to ask my dog but my kind & tolerant DH picked the winner instead as Tam would  surely have eaten the bit of paper.

Linda Stokes is the winner!

So, there we go. I won't be sending the leaves of course as I don't want to break any laws or get the package fumigated! Thanks for all the wonderful input, I really enjoyed my anniversary party & reading every one's ideas.

Great to exhibit some of your pieces locally - hope it leads to more.
Hope you've got your thermals on!

Congratulations to your winner! Your doggie looks rather cold, sitting in the ice. That is about how it looks here too, although it is melting now. Good luck with your next craft fair.

I'm very excited to be the winner - thanks so much Emma! It does look cold - big contrast to where I am. Great that you got your work into the local gallery - hope it leads to more.

Oh, I've been so behind on reading blogs, and I always apologize, but it seems like my schedule now is going to make sporadic reading a regular thing!

These pictures just slay me. And the doggy! How handsome she/he is!
