Today's  2 images are my pieces for the Round Robin Journal l am doing over the next 15 months. This is the second month..title of this journal is SURREAL.
So the first month was my journal..LANGUAGE.

 2nd month...SURREAL and l have titled it " Depth".
So this will go in the post tomorrow! It is really nerve racking doing work in someone else's journal. I had never done it before and it took me almost the whole month before l could actual do it! Once l had started, l really enjoyed creating it. Only another 13 to go!

A new hanging(!) and a finished cross-stitch piece.

I have just finished this birthday present for my wonderful daughter-in-law. It is the same small "cushions" l  make my book covers from, but made it into a wall hanging instead. I have also put up an image of a finished crossstitch piece, which l finished a while ago..called "Noah's Ark"! Enjoyx
Below is a close up view of the some of the decorated "Cushions" which makes up the hanging. I will also decorate a wooden stick for it to hang on in the near future. Fingers crossed she likes it!

Below is the Noah's Ark cross-stitch piece. Have not decided yet how to frame it.
