For the next fifty boats I’m going to use different patterns, partly because the little boats take a ridiculously long time to make and partly the bathroom ceiling has become a fairly full harbour.

My next batch of boats will be made using a pattern from Ann Wood’s website. I’ve only made one so far but I think they’d be fun and easy to make in batches. Some of hers are made from old letters, envelopes and books and decorated with snippets from newspapers. I’m looking forward to experimenting.
