      Thankyou Ann the banner is a photo which has been edited in paint.net to put the text over it. Judy showed me how to do it - you can download it free.

      Hello Catherine. I read somewhere about a man who paints using spiders webs in his pictures he somehow picks them up and puts them on his paper - what a wonderful thought.

    Hello there...
    Fell in love with these beautiful autumn quotes, thank you for sharing with us all.
    I wanted to thank you for sweet words over on mine and also say, that I have your woodland birds music playing (beautiful) and my kittie cats are looking around the room for the recipients, naughty, naughty cats!
    I do hope autumn is being kind to you!
    Love Maria x

    Dear Betty - my first visit to your lovely blog has been a real treat. Your silk paintings are so beautiful. I too live in a woods and enjoy nature's gifts. Took time to check out your silk tutorial. You make it look easy but I am sure it is not. Thanks for sharing your art. Have a great day.

    Hiya Betty, you asked how much fibre it takes to make a large piece of felt, well I weighed mine for you at it was less than 400grms. You don't use very much, the skill is in teasing it out into fine whispy strands. Just don't work in front of an open window, lol.
