Swanning around

Another week has gone by of the summer holidays - I can't believe it!
It's been a busy week, even though we haven't gone far. Son is back in a boot on his ankle and the weather has been rather wet here in the west.
On Friday Pickle-Lily and I decided to carry on with her swan hunt. The city of Wells, to commemorate the Queen's Jubilee created a swan trail of 60 very large swans, decorated by local artists and schools, and over the past months P has tried to see them all.
We have managed about 50 so far, they are all very different and we both have our favourites. If you do get a chance to visit Wells it is a great way to explore the city.
I also seem to have spent a lot of time cutting out - both felt and fabric, and making a lovely mess all over the floor!
P has helped by using the big shot to cut out lots of gingerbread men for me to use in the new kits I am creating for Christmas, and I couldn't help make some decorations as well!
 I know it seems rather early for the Christmas, but I just couldn't resist them!
I'm linking up with Handmade Monday again this week, and looking forward to visiting the crafty blogs on there. 
Have a lovely week!
