Mary Rose has been lovely..
"Flowers....are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out values all the utilities of the world"
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
...also made some binding for the 3 quilts that have been sitting waiting to be bound, thought if I get organised now with the machining part I could do the hand stitiching while recuperating..this involved a lot of cutting and pressing, but have finally got started.
...crocheted round some face flannels for a bit of light relief!
....made up some lavender and lemon verbena scented bags with some doilies from the 'stash'...
Took some time to admire some sunny day clouds....
and have a walk at the river....which is very low, we would love to have some rain.
a little stilt taking a paddle.
Of course there had to be some Archie time too....he's growing fast...
..it's very hard to get a photo when he wants to sniff the camera..
...so cute!
...co-ordination improving..
..can itch his own back...so clever!
The autumn flowers are appearing and bringing some cheery faces inside..
I love that beautiful light you sometimes get in the evenings...we have had some lovely, softly lit evenings.
"The hill the vale, the tree, the tower
Glowed with the tints of evening hour,
The beech was silver sheen,
Such the enchanting scene."
(Sir Walter Scott)
Have a happy week.
