If you came to the York Textile Artists annual show at the Cemetery Chapel, you may remember this chap starting to make his presence felt on the worktable.
Well, I've just found him at the bottom of a bag :'( and am finally going to finish him this week.

How could I forget him? I'm feeling really guilty now!

Latest commission collected yesterday and here is original Steve meeting his pawtrait. I think he likes it - that's a nod and a wink, anyway!

Just ONE commission slot left before Christmas. Does somepawdy you love deserve to be immortalised in wool?

Apparently puffins really use sticks as back scratchers, in order to reach itches their beaks can't manage...but this doesn't look sturdy enough to scratch anything! And twigs aren't used as nesting material. So, answers on a postcard please. Maybe he's Harry Puffin and this is his wand....what's that he said? Wingardium Leviosa? Perhaps a safer way of fishing....

Finished and awaiting framing

This puffin is looking for something...I can't quite see what it is yet!

This latest in my series of my favourite bird will go for framing next week. They don't stay on the gallery long, so if you'd like to reserve him, drop me a dm x
