Feeling light today. The cafe work has finished for me and I'm feeling grateful to have time and motivation for my creative work. The school holidays have also finished, and the children were happy to go back to school. Got lots of washing, shopping and small jobs done in preparation. And there's a windy but golden day outside.
I was given the old straw sewing box by a friend who was sorting out some of her childhood things. It's huge and perfect for embroidery threads. A few months ago, I was given a bag of vintage embroidery silk by a kind blog reader- it used to belong to her grandmother who was an amazing embroiderer. So over the weekend I carefully wound some of the silks onto pieces of recycled card. I started with the pinks. I hope i can do them justice.
