More colouring, a Tapanuli Orangutan

The colouring book of endangered species has lovely illustrations and interesting facts. The Tapanuli orangutan was only discovered in 2017 and there are less than 800 of them left, the other two species are also endangered but the numbers are not quite so drastic. I haven’t finished this illustration yet but will post the two pics showing the progress so far. 
Quite a lot of solid colouring and it did give me a dead hand for a while!
I will post a fantastic sunrise photo taken by Lunny who is out early most days.
Tina had ordered an electric room scent pot some months ago and it was delivered today. As she had waited so long for it she didn’t want to wait until a ‘special day’ to give it to me so I moved things around a bit and have it plugged in so that I can see it as well as smell it. I have had it switched on for a while now so the wax has melted and it is lit up and the house smells gorgeous.
I ordered a bias binding maker kit which arrived today. The instructions are minimal but ai have watched a video and may have a play tomorrow and see how I get on.
Not a lot of change in the leg pain but I am doing quite a lot of pedalling now in the hope that it will help.
Today is Confession Day, not sure about that one!

  1. The book of endangered species has proved to be good entertainment for you. The orangutan looks very good. So much work though.
    What a great pic from Lunny! You need to buy a dog so you can go out early mornings like that.
    Bet the new smelly thing is filling everywhere with a nice scent. Hope the cats don’t decide to play with it. You definitely don’t want to find wax embedded in the carpet!
    Your new toy looks a bit complicated. I assume it attaches to the sewing machine?
    Don’t go mad with the pedalling.

  2. Yes, the book is great.
    Hopefully a I will feel able to have early morning walks before too long.
    You can use the machine to attach the binding but not sure it will work on quilting.
