While I’m counting down the days until I get my beautiful new shoulder cap / arm tattoo by the amazing Emma Mere from SRT Studios, I thought I’d share some ink inspiration.

Who said tattooed ladies couldn’t be beautiful?!
Goodness! It has been a while since I’ve updated, huh?! To be honest, I’ve just been having far too much fun out in the sunshine. For a start, I have been working on the motorcycle (my lovely 1980 Honda CB250RS) and when I haven’t been working on it, I’ve been riding it! Oh, and when I haven’t been doing either of those things, I’ve been chatting with the nice folks over at vjmog.com (the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Owners Group).
Craft has gone out the window for a little while. My needlework lace has been replaced with oily rags. But what can I say, the sunshine has been just beautiful. So please excuse me while I head out for a ride!
