WOYWW 846 Crochet critters and watercolour

Hi all, I’m back for another Wednesday bloghop courtesy of Sarah’s craftshed
All those of you who guessed that my latest emotional support critter was a dragon were spot on. 



They’re currently sitting on the back of the settee where the hens are looking quizzically at Brian. 😹😹
I’m also trying to do another painting, this one of the Peak District, but I’m not happy with it. 
I had to fix the printer first(to get my reference photo)  as the magenta wasn’t printing. I tried changing the ink cartridge, running a clean but nothing was working. I went online and found the deep clean option, which finally worked. Then I almost gave up on the painting but I keep lifting out and trying. I think most paintings go through an ugly phase so I keep trying to fix it for longer now. 

I’ll see if I can turn it round. I need more of a slant on the rocks and a better shaping, as well as the layers of sky and hills. 
Bella prefers me crocheting to painting. She sends you all purrs, between her absolutely essential and frequent naps. 😻

And finally:


I’ll be in and out tomorrow, so it might be later before I can start visiting your blogs. 
Happy WOYWW 
Hugs

the row of chicken along the sofa did make me chuckle... I hope you get your painting to your satisfaction, but well done for getting the printer sorted first! Happy WOYWW Helen #3

That pic of Bri with the chickens made me laugh out loud! They’re keeping a beady eye on him for sure, lol! The dragon is looking great and well done for persevering with the painting, I like it a lot. Hope you have a good day.

Me again! That’s a great idea to research what £15k will buy and feature the info on a sign. I’m in the shop this afternoon, see if there’s any of the crew around and ask them 🥰
