For the journey |
I was armed with magazines, a suduko book and a small sketch book which helped pass the time.
Oh yes, I had a few sweeties too.
Felt Critters |
I'm planning to sew backs on them, add padding and a ribbon loop then these little fella's will probably become key fobs or zip pullers.
At the end of the week my husband came to collect me so I didn't need to do the return journey by train.
We arrived home on Saturday evening and on the Sunday we took part in the Eastern Region Ride of Respect which is an annual charity ride to raise money and awareness for the Royal British Legion. It's a great ride but by gosh it was a cold day.

Its actually quite nice to travel by train for a change. I always take something to do too to pass the time. Your little felt critters turned out good. Wow do you have a motorbike like the ones in the picture? Mich x
ReplyDeleteone of the best things about travelling by train is how much you can get done on the journey! Hoping to see lots of critter keyrings and suchlike soon!
ReplyDeleteI love the occasional train ride, I find it so relaxing, it makes such a change as I'm always driving everywhere.

Your felt critters remind me of liquorice allsorts!! Love the colours and can't wait to see what they turn into! X
ReplyDeleteI had to look twice at your little felt critters. I thought they were sweets - the ones you took with you on your journey!!
ReplyDeleteCute little felt critters. Sounds like you had a great week with your mum.
ReplyDeleteI love that type of journey, we spend so much time causing round in a car when a train at times can take the strain. Mind you would probably take the everything and the kitchen sink just in case... and you had time with your Mum, have a great week Jan and take care x
ReplyDeleteLovely felt critters - I can see lots of different things they can be added to. Glad you enjoyed your train journey and spent time with your mum. Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteWow. You are into Motorbikes. Now that does get my attention. I had one in my youth, too many years ago to think about but never forgot the thrill of sitting astride that powerful animal. Sigh. Back to reality and the zimmer. (Not quite yet). I love train journeys, I have to travel that way to my eldests home and look forward to several hours of me time where no one can get at me. As you say, they can be quite productive hours too. Love your little felt faces and can't wait to see what they end up as.
ReplyDeleteBike - train -bike-train...erm, biiiiiike!
ReplyDeleteI love travelling by train, it's so relaxing (if there aren't any delays and you can get a seat!) I normally take my crochet, I wouldn't trust the other travellers safety if I had had anything more pointy!
ReplyDeleteLove the felt critters, especially the big eyes, they remind me of the ghosts from pacman :)
