Jill and I went over the Drysdale to the Springdale hall where the local felters were having a show.
The view as you came in the door. There were many beautiful things here, jackets, scarves, hats and some lovely containers of all shapes and sizes
this one came home with me. No idea what I am going to do with it, I just liked it, I guess it can sit on the window sill for now and be admired! 😀
Tuesday I went over to Portarlington to take a quilt to Joan to be quilted and on the way home had a wander through the newish playground there, the sculptures are done with a chainsaw and are the base of old trees. (Newish could have been pre covid)
These dolphins are beautiful
Love this octopus chair
So clever.
A stack of crabs
These are down at the beach near where the ferry leave from for Melbourne, I think they are mussels as there is a lot of mussel farming in the bay out from here.
Lots of work is happening here, a new wharf has been built, a covered walkway is going in for the ferry passengers and the mussel farmers can drive out to their boats if they need to.
The most amazing moon came up Tuesday night, I was told it was a strawberry full moon.
Some views from my walk yesterday
It was a windy morning.
Right I am sure there is something I should be doing, so I will go and find what it is!
Happy stitching.
Lovely outing and I like your felt pot. Yep just nice to sit on the sill and admire.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sculptures…
If they are mussels they would be a feast. Those carvings are amazing
ReplyDeleteIt would have been great to see all the felted creations. I can understand why that one came home with you. I think all it needs is to be admired. It doesn’t have to be used for anything. Portarlington looks really interesting. We haven’t explored Dow that way very much……..one day…….
ReplyDeleteThose people with their chainsaws are so clever. The wood sculptures are works of art. Your little felt pot is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose wood sculptures are gorgeous - so much detail!
ReplyDeleteNice water photos!
ReplyDeleteAmazing sculptures. The moon has been beautiful the last few nights. Pretty "just because" bowl.
ReplyDeleteThe felting and chainsawing are amazing art forms.... people are so creative.... there has been lovely skies... I haven't heard of strawberry moon before...

ReplyDeleteSue - beautiful wood sculptures - I like the dolphins the best!
ReplyDeleteThat is a cute felted item. Looks like a little gum nut pod. I love the sculptures too
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Lovely art work and even lovelier photos you have taken!
ReplyDeleteI would like to see all the felted items. That is something I haven’t tried. You have a wonderful place to walk.
