 Thanks for sharing the photos of your lovely pug @Teddybear12 I'm sure everyone is hopefully staying warm, dry and safe today

Just a gentle reminder that the topic of the weather is open in another discussion, in case we get too sidetracked!

I buy images online and tweak them and often add text. I offer them for sale on a wide variety of sites like Etsy, Zazzle, CafePress, and Society6. They  can be found on t-shirts, coffee mugs, shower curtains, wall art, and much more... Here are a few I have done recently:

Thanks, I have many designs. I have a series of famous works of art with the title and artist's name in the border. Here are a few more:

Hi funwithchemo so nice to see you again.
Me and hubby love these, we have a house full of the mettle signs, i love reading some of the funny one's you see in the shops, it always puts a smile on my face, which is what you have done for me looking at your posts.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi everyone,

I'm so glad I found this site, so much helpful information and lovely people! 

I haven't been disabled for long but in that time I have taught myself to bead. I now sell what I make, but it's the joy and calm that it gives me that's important to me.

This is a pair of my favourites - my Galaxy Fringe Earrings

Nice @SueHeath what is your favourite cathedral in the UK?

Woo now your asking mmm i have a few Yorkminster Lincoln Chichester - Chichester was interesting as there is an art piece (statue of a man) in one of the under ground rooms, this room floods so some of the time his feet are under the water.

Hi all,

I have a drawing, around my study of PHI and Fibonacci numbers:-

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number

These fractals come up in nature and most show this in the Golden ratio, some shapes keep coming up, like the dodecahedron, pentagon, pentacle and Golden Spiral.

Some think that the Universe is made up of these shapes:-

Hi all.  I’m a relative newbie on this forum, but I promised to upload some pics of my cross stitch and embroidery, so here they are (not in any particular order);

Counted cross stitch by Satsuma Street, but I made a few changes - namely to her hairstyle;

First attempt at embroidery;

Felt catnip mouse for my mum’s cats;

Heat wrap - self made by trial and error (machine sewn);

Dog bed for my chihuahua;

 Finally (for now) a couple of cross-stitched coasters and a memorial ornament of my late dog, Max.

@LCB1012 well done! They look so good! I’m absolutely rubbish at sewing etc. just couldn’t do it.

Tori_Scope

I really like the drawing @Astronomer65 It's very creative!

Tori_Scope

Really impressive crafts @LCB1012 I particularly like the one of Max! 

What's your Chihuahua called?

So was I until I started embroidery.   It teaches you how to do a lot of different stitches.

Thank you.  Yes, they do.

Here’s something I started yesterday . Sadly this beautiful kitty had to be put to sleep 😞she’s one of my friends cats. Always heartbreaking when we lose one of our pets. It’s not finished yet. Still have more to do
