It's Giveaway Time!


To help me celebrate the end of the potatoes, who would like to own the 101st potato picture? I did this one for fun (Fun? Are you mad, woman??) as I thought it would be a good giveaway prize. It's not to the standard of the ones going in the book - not that I didn't try hard, but I painted it on canvas which has a bumpy surface and prevents me from achieving quite the same detail. It's quite small - one of those postcard sized canvases. Just leave me a comment below - doesn't matter where on the planet you are, if you fancy owning a painted potato just go for it. You never know, I might be famous one day and this will be worth a fortune........
I'll draw a name out of a hat in a couple of weeks, shall we say Valentine's Day?


This little chap is not being given away - he's just gone up on Etsy, so you'll have to pay for him. I have now knitted him a bed, blanket, toys & bowl and he is ready to be re-homed. I think his name might be Spud..........Sold already! But I'm making another one, white this time.

The Great Spud, that you can mash, bake, roast, boil and chip.
I would be proud to have such a versatile vegetable on my kitchen wall.
