Pussy Willow and Ribbons

I love pussy willow. Not far from my home there is a pussy willow tree.

Every year in late winter I gather branches to place in a vase. They are

beginning to bud then and are an early sign that spring is near.
I enjoyed creating this wreath. It hangs on my kitchen wall.

Poppies in the Garden

Its very easy to rush past these pretty flowers.
I like to take the time and stop once in a while
to appreciate the colours, the ruffled edges and
the delicate petals of this beautiful poppy.

I love the brilliance of these Bright red Poppies

Fabric Tags

I had a lot of fun making these fabric tags. A background of photocopied music with some 'happy words' added and I had my fabric to work with. A little fibrefill, stitching and background fabric and there they are.

A New Beginning!

It is hard to know where to begin. A new blog and lots of ideas swirling around!
I thought I would start with something I have been doing of late.
It is relatively new to me. Maggie Grey was my inspiration here. What beautiful work she does.

Fabric beads can be quick and easy to make. Great to do when I have a creative urge. You know, that 'must do something urge.' There are no two beads alike. So much like us humans very individual and that is good.

I'm trying to get a photo with this.

With a beautiful new laptop I am very happy to say we have a 'photo' at last!
