The World's Slowest Yurt - Getting There!

Hurrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy! At long last The World's Slowest Yurt has walls and windows!

I have to say it looks absolutely amazing with a light on inside at night-time, like a great big Chinese Lantern.

There's still a lot to do, insulation and bits and pieces to fix the canvas better to the frame, but it is basically there. YOOOOOO! I have wondered several times why I didn't try to make something a bit easier though - maybe a life-size model of the Taj Mahal out of empty beer tins and string or something...

I have seen this Yurt being built from scratch. It has been an amazing journey of trust! Ian has never used a sewing machine before, it just shows how determination and good will will take you where you need to go! The yurt is so beautiful and at the moment it is in my garden being used as a waiting room for all the healing clinics, thank you so much for that honour! If you need anything built from scratch Ian is your man. This Yurt is filled with LOVE! Debi Mairesse
