Last week Lisa and Shari started what I think will soon become a favourite blogging day... "pile Wednesday".
So, here's my work load for today, yesterday and tomorrow all rolled in together plus my Agatha Christie's patiently waiting for me to read the last couple I've neglected.
Also, Gracia and my parliament of owls is getting very close to being ready. We set it up on Monday at Craft Victoria. If anyone is in that neck of the woods feel free to go and say hello to our owl pinnies. For everyone else who can't make it across the seas to see it, rest assured Gracia and I will post a million and one photos.
A PARLIAMENT OF OWLS - HANDMADE BY HAMMER & DAISY

PS. The drawing on the invite is Gracia's. I've put in my vote for her to make up an owl zine, what do you think?





More wonderful piles...and i definitely vote 'yes' for the owl zine!!!

Hello Julie, Wendy, Shari, Tiffany, Risa, Marieke, Christine, Cruststation, Lisa S, Maditi and Gwen of Bugheart.
Apologies for the lack of response, Gracia & myself have been up to our necks in owls - no surprise there! Thank-you for all your wonderful and kind comments in regard to our owl window display. We'll keep them all in mind as we install the trees and owl pinnies tomorrow. Lots of photos will be on the way later in the week!
As to my idea for Gracia to make an owl zine - I'm going to keep pestering her too. Several new collages feature eggs and other bird type objects so fingers crossed. And thanks Marieke... we are both happy you are loving your zines from us too!
Glad you all liked the weekly piles. And Lisa S, it's piles of cut fabric and fabric covered future journal covers in the bottom right square that you can see.
Cheers, LJ
