A few days in Scotland. Making spoons and being in nature

I've just returned from a week in the stunning north east of Scotland! My weekend was jam-packed with the art of spoon carving, and I went to beautiful locations while indulging in some outdoor stitching.
Join me for a captivating glimpse into my trip, which I’m calling quiet, despite the roaring sounds of nature all around!

I've included links to the amazing spots I visited, including Udo and Marcassie Farm.

You have shared and taught me many things. Those who have crafted for years and years can still learn from a gentle teacher. Most of all, however, you have comforted me. I didn't know I needed it but in the gentlest and loveliest way you brought comfort and a ton of unexpected gifts. I so appreciate it. I hope you see this and know you've made a friend in Lexington, Virginia, U.S.A.

A lovely, gentle video, I could smell the fresh green dampness of the rushing river, ferns, moss and lichen.

That green leaf spoon is precious. Perfect in its rustic simplicity.

Your spoons have so much character! Both are beautiful, one is so graceful and elegant, the short spoon seems ancient - to be carried everywhere. Such sensitive work. I'm in awe.
