Turtles and Frogs

I took several photos of some turtles and frogs a few days ago at the pond beside by brother-in-law's house in Nova Scotia.

Here are a few sites to check out! Maybe you will find a suitable gift to make for some little one on your list or maybe these will inspire you to create something unique. Enjoy!

View from the Hill

The weather in Nova Scotia has been great since I've been here. I haven't been able to post to my blog as often but I have been taking lots of wonderful photos. Some of them are definitely worth consideration for future textile work. The view from my brother-in-law's back garden is spectacular. You can look way up the valley in Brooklyn, Nova Scotia. Off to the side of the driveway is a small pond with tall grass, cattails, tall trees, lots of noisy frogs, turtles and gold fish. It's the perfect spot to sit with a sketch book. (I used my camera instead). Enjoy!
