...continuing on with the Windows series
I started posting last year
it seems like a good way to start the week
for the next little while
personally, I don't tire of windows

weaving from late last year
finally off the loom
it's cut, hemmed, washed
and hanging out to dry now

it's been an unexpected break
the new year caught me by surprise
my compass wasn't set yet
and now here we are in April

compass or not though
I feel like the time has come
to set sail and see where we end up
it could be anywhere
but I'm hoping it's somewhere lovely

slowly, slowly
quietly, quietly

another round of festive baking complete
I can hardly believe it's Christmas time again
many thanks for stopping by this year
and for all your thoughtful and inspiring comments

wishing you a happy and safe festive season
hopefully spent in the company of those you love
see you again in the new year

checks and stripes







some pre-holiday sewing
in cotton and linen / checks and stripes
perfect for our changeable summer weather
I really can't get enough of this pattern
it's so easy to sew and wear

I'm looking forward to seeing this show

linen / twill / studio







weaving is a joy
after a long break from the loom
my feet have to find the pedals again
twill...it's always been a favourite of mine

a perfect spring day
