"Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?"
"Supposing it didn't," said Pooh after careful thought.
Piglet was comforted by this
This was one of my first attempts with stampbord, which I also made years ago, it was the latest new thing to try back then!
This is a more recent Pooh whatnot.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope you are enjoying my week of Pooh. Hopefully my hand will be recovered enough to get back to crafting soon!

The Pooh take over continues... Today I thought I would share the real 100 acre wood with you, which is the Ashdown Forest in East Sussex, England. All of the places mentioned in the Pooh books can still be found in the forest. Gills Lap ( known as The Enchanted Place in the book) Poohsticks Bridge where you can still play Pooh sticks and many more.There are several walks you can take to visit the Pooh places the details of which can be found are here.
There is also a shop nearby called Pooh Corner where they sell pooh souvenirs.Christopher Robin used to visit that shop as a child to buy his penny worth of sweets.
A memorial to A.A.Milne and E.H. Shepard can also be found in the forest.
"They walked on, thinking of This and That, and by-and-by they came to an enchanted place on the very top of the Forest called Galleons Lap, which is sixty-something trees in a circle; and Christopher Robin knew that it was enchanted because nobody had ever been able to count whether it was sixty-three or sixty-four, not even when he tied a piece of string round each tree after he had counted it. Being enchanted, its floor was not like the floor the Forest, gorse and bracken and heather, but close-set grass, quiet and smooth and green. It was the only place in the Forest where you could sit down carelessly, without getting up again almost at once and looking for some where else. Sitting there they could see the whole world spread out until it reached the sky, and whatever there was all the world over was with them in Galleons Lap."

Gabrielle Designs made these wonderful Pooh sets. They were also famous for making their Paddington bears. Sadly they went out of business in the 90's.

“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. “Pooh,” he whispered.
“Yes, Piglet?”
“Nothing,” said Piglet, taking Pooh’s paw, “I just wanted to be sure of you.”
I am missing my crafting so much, I have been doing some sort of craft or other since I was a child.I find it is very therapeutic and helps to try and take my mind off everything.
As I am a huge Classic Pooh fan, I am sharing something Classic Pooh everyday in the run up to our silly old British bears 90th birthday on 14th October. Today I am sharing my collection of Classic Pooh stamps, some of them are decades old! I love them all!
Below is a whatnot I made with them, it was the first thing I ever had published!
When I get back to crafting which will hopefully be soon, I must make more of the things I love and enjoy making.
Thank you so much for visiting I hope to see you again soon - lots more Classic Pooh to come!

"What day is it?", asked Winnie the Pooh
"It's today," squeaked Piglet
"My favourite day," said Pooh

What a lovely surprise it was to see Kay showing my projects live on Hochanda television, along with lots of wonderful projects by the talented Indigoblu Design Team. It was a few weeks ago, but I have only managed to put the photos up today.
You might be able to spot my Alice in Winterland Canvas on the shelf in the background.
I had my stitches out today, and I need lots of therapy to get movement back. Luckily I planned ahead and I made some Indigoblu Autumn projects before I had my operation, so I will be putting those on the blog this month.
"'I wasn't afraid,' said Pooh, said he, 'I'm never afraid with you.' So wherever I am, there's always Pooh, There's always Pooh and Me."
