Latest News - April 2020
8 April at 8pm - Brew and a Blether
In these "interesting times", I'm holding more regular live video chats in the Quernoholics Anonymous group o Facebook. The next one is scheduled for 8pm BST on Wednesday 8 April. In the last video chat, I did a live demonstration of making a Happy Wee Creature, so you can expect more demos during these chats every now and again!
12 April at 8pm - Easter Shop Event
There will be a Quernus Easter Event taking place at 8pm BST (UK time) on Easter Sunday, 12 April. I'll be making lots of Easter creatures in the run up to the event, which will take place in my online shop.
For more information about which wee creatures will be taking part, visit my Quernus page.
During these "interesting times" we are currently in, we could all do with a bit of cheering up. So I'm making Happy Wee Creatures who will go out into the world to remind people that they are loved, appreciated and not alone.

Keep Calm and Quernus On
Things are moving so quickly with the COVID-19 virus here in the UK and elsewhere. I am very fortunate that I rent a studio not far from home, and I work on my own every day. I am therefore going to keep making wee creatures for as long as people want to adopt them - I think they are playing an important role in keeping our spirits up in these "interesting times". Royal Mail's advice is that people receiving parcels through the post are not at risk of contracting coronavirus - click here for more information.
There was a time, not so very long along, when the cupboards were always bare in the Quernus shop. But since I started the Mini Shop Events, there are usually one or two wee creatures still available to adopt! So keep checking in to my online shop and see if there's a wee creature waiting just for you :)
Last summer, I was commissioned by DK Publishing to make five unicorns to be photographed for a children's pop-up book. After several months of keeping quiet, the book has now been published, and I love how they have captured each of the wee unicorns! You can buy the book on Amazon UK and Amazon.com.
