Fabrics, buttons, linens and stitching!


Good morning!

I have had an idea and so that means searching through my delicious 'stash' for just the right piece of vintage of fabric! I have in my minds eye the colours and pattern that I think would be just perfect.
So it's a hard job BUT someone must do it!! :)))

It's raining again but I can see the little bits of green pushing through the dirt, which tells me that our tulips are trying to wake up! I hope they are not too early because I have heard that we may be in for some snow in February.  Although the weather has been cold here, it has not been freezing and we have not had much frost at all.

Today though as I sit in the warm and arrange my mood board for the project that I am working on, I am happy and content.  I do enjoy the summer and sitting outside with some hand stitching and I am looking forward to lighter evenings, which mean longer days!  When it gets dark at 4.30pm I loose all sense of time.  I sometimes engross myself so much that I forget lunch on some days and wonder why my tummy is grumbling!!

So I will leave you now with thoughts of summer...... Enjoy your day.

 
What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness!
