Polar Bear feast on whale Wrangel Island

“They look like sheep.. what do you think Max”, said Dr John aboard the Akademik Shokalskiy looking toward the cliffs and soft slopes of tundra Wrangel Island. “They’re Polar Bears”, said Max incredulously and asked Rodney Russ the Expedition leader of Heritage Expeditions to have a look for himself.   Rodney at first thought they were lumps of ice and Alexander Gruzdev from Wrangle Island State Nature reserve said initially that it couldn’t be Polar Bears because there wouldn’t be that many… but there WERE that many!   Within 15 minutes we quietly embarked into zodiacs to cruise slowly and quietly past this natural phenomenon difficult to adequately articulate.   181 – one hundred and eighty-one Polar Bears on the hillside around the carcass of a dead whale… with approximately 60 others walking towards the round-stoned beach.   Rangers from the island confirmed the presence of 260 bears that day; one mum with quadruplets; and many with triplets. There seemed to be a second mum with quads, but upon careful inspection it can be seen that the mum is endeavouring to herd away the fourth from her own triplets.   This Polar Bear feasting on a whale was an incredulous […]

Helsinki… Things to do wandering in this beautiful city…

On our way to Murmansk in Russia for the North East passage Northern Sea Route journey; we stopped in Helsinki for a week.   Helsinki is beautiful. Quiet. Clean. Had such a lovely feel to it. Max and I walked about 10kms a day and immersed ourselves totally in the city area to acclimate our body clock before our epic sea journey north of Russia.   Language wasn't an issue, and

  • I am a creator, a weaver, a knitter, traveler, photographer, a maker; and reflecting on over half a century of living, I suddenly recognise the words of Pink Floyd’s ‘Time’ make so much sense. 

I am so grateful to have experienced so much living, and recalling this song recently has reminded me that despite some life challenges; how quickly time - and my life is passing. 

There has been a time more recently where I haven’t been able to travel and experience the world and myself as I would have liked, but there are other ways that I can ensure I don’t fritter myself away. Being creative is that continuing thread. My journeys are the foundation for my creative work, especially my weaving. 

So, I quietly reflect. With gratitude. 

Share this with someone you think may like this quiet reminder.

  • Life goes fast; with curveballs; and accompanying that for me has been a reflection of my life and the memory of the lyrics of Pink Floyd’s ‘Time’; a song I grew up with.

I am so grateful to have experienced so much living, and recalling this song recently has reminded me that despite some life challenges; I still must not fritter a single second of my life away. 

There has been a time where we haven’t been able to travel and experience the world and myself as I would have liked, but there are other ways that I can ensure I don’t waste my time alive!

I am a creator. A teacher. A storyteller. A traveller. A photographer. A weaver. A knitter. A maker. I need to keep creating. Celebrating my life is still as important now as it was a few years ago! 

So, I quietly reflect. With gratitude.

  • Who would have thought you needed to be fit as a weaver; as you can see, this specific exercise is imperative for lifting one’s yarn collection. Let all your friends know about this! 

What other exercises do you think I should do? 

Come follow along for my weaving tips and ideas. I may even make you laugh.
  • There’s a very important quality necessary for being a weaver, and being fit is one of them! As you can see, specific exercises are imperative for lifting one’s yarn resources. Let all your friends know about this! 

Come follow along for my weaving tips and ideas. I may even make you laugh.
  • The door has shut; want quiet, no traffic, don’t want to talk to anyone and just stay home and do the things you want to do; like spinning, weaving, knitting, crafting; but feel like you should be getting dressed out of your pj’s, and going out to at least have a coffee???

You could role play like I did. Lol you can save this as a reminder that you don’t have to go out today at all!!! Follow to see my next studio ‘outing’.

One can never be overdressed wherever you are! Pop on your bling and do your thing!
So it’s all sorted then? Welcome! 
  • Oops. Save this as a reminder if you ever accidentally missed some slots threading your reed; that it’s only a little oopsie. No biggie! 

It’s an easy fix as long as you find the perfect weight to keep the replaced threads the same tension as the rest of the warp. 

Always surprises here in my studio. Need a bit more of that? Come join in!

Ever been stuck knowing where to start a project. ‘What I saw’ is often a good place to start. 

Your journeys can be wonderful source material for your projects. Save this as a reminder for your own weaving and if you’re  just visiting my space here, come follow along to see what I weave from my journeys.

This blanket I’ve woven was inspired by a road trip driving our 100 year old vintage Vauxhall from Bangkok to London. We broke down in Kyrgyzstan after driving rough Tibet for a month; but that’s another story!
