It's been a while so here's a new #IntroductionPost.

I'm from #Yorkshire but live in #Cumbria.

I have too many #Hobbies, including #Knitting #Crochet #Spinning and #ChocolateMaking. I'm learning #Bellringing and a few #Languages. I want to learn #Weaving and #Embroidery.

I collect #TarotCards, #AntiqueSewingMachines, #SpinningWheels, #CraftSupplies and #OldStuff.

I love #PetRats #StoneCircles #Churches #Cathedrals #Castles #OldBuildings and my #ToDoList.

Finally finished making a coat for @dev_ric that I started over a year ago. Now he has a coat that pretty much fits and doesn't look like a dressing gown.

Ric standing in front of one of my singer treadle sewing machines wearing a knee length, double breasted, grey wool coat with brown leather buttons. He's trying not to grin or giggle. He's not good at being photographed.

We're still working on getting the new house unpacked and organised, and there are still boxes all over the place, but we're starting to feel a bit more settled in. Here's a photo of the window over the stairs. #ListedBuilding #StainedGlass

A stained glass arch headed window with a colourful border and yellow floral patterns surrounding a lion in a purple circle in the middle of the panel.

Last night I figured out how to use my new buttonhole attachment for my antique singer sewing machine, and made some test buttonholes. It's amazing what you can do with a machine that's designed to make straight stitches! #Sewing #RicsCoat #AntiqueSewingMachine #SingerSewingMachine #Buttonholes #ButtonholeAttachment

We went away for a short break, which was supposed to be a bargain trip with a super cheap room for the night to visit some National Trust properties (we're members), but it turned out to be more expensive than expected when I bought a spinning wheel... This is the Kromski Interlude to go with my Kromski Sonata 😍 #ShortBreak #NationalTrust #SpinningWheel #KromskiInterlude #KromskiSonata #Kromski #Spinning #HandSpinning

It might be a bit late for #StandingStoneSunday but I was at #Stonehenge on Sunday so I think it counts?

This is Blakeley Raise Stone Circle, also known as Kinniside. There are often these horses hanging around nearby, and the cows were just a little further along the road. Photos from my birthday in February 2019. #StandingStoneSunday #StoneCircle #Cumbria

A wide shot of me standing in the middle of a ring of low stones on the moors.

The stone circle without me standing in it.

A group of wild horses walking past us across the moorland, taken from inside the car with a bit of wing mirror in the corner of the shot.

A very fluffy cow with very long horns, and another partly in the shot, taken through the car window because they looked a bit scary!

Since I started following #Mosstodon, #Mastodon has started to look like a typo 😂

This is Yockenthwaite Stone Circle in the Yorkshire Dales by the River Wharfe #StandingStoneSunday #StoneCircle
