An Early Weekend Post

Phew! That's it, this week is over for me, and my goodness has it been a busy one! I had to cram as much work as possible as I am going away for a long week-end. Yay! So as a treat, because I am so elated at having finished all I needed to do, I thought I'd share a few scenes that made me happy this week when I struggled with the amount of stuff to do...

This fluffy bunch of pampa grass on a gloriously sunny day...

The flaming ferns in Richmond Park...

This rosebud and leaves, snipped from outside, next to my latest yarn casualties, in a an arrangement unapologetically inspired by the amazing work of Philippa Stanton...

These adorable little jars of beads, which I went to buy after I had my beaded crochet class...

And this squishy bit of roving I couldn't resist to get as well, without the faintest clue as to what I'll use it for!

Oh, and those scrummy rolls of fabric tapes, which I picked up just because I liked the look of them.

My ever growing collection of buttons of all sizes and colours, fast becoming firm favourites as props for crochet photo shoots...

Rich-coloured yarn I picked up a while ago and that I still haven't got round to put on the yarn winder. But it was quite expensive, and I confess I am a tiny bit scared...

More yarn, which I've been crocheting with lately. Again, warm, rich colours so in line with the seasonal tones. Love it!

And finally, the memory of this sunset, a photo of which I came across in my folders today!

Thanks for reading, peeps, I'll be back next week with tales from the North! :)
