Yellow 1

Yellow 2

Yellow 3

Today's small embroidered piece was inspired by an evening walk with the family. Now that the days are getting longer, we can go out after eating dinner for a quick walk or bike ride- the children love it.

Yesterday when we were out, I spotted this cluster of white daisies growing amongst weeds at the side of the road. I spent the rest of the evening stitching these delicate little flowers and sewing them into a needle book for today' shop update. Yellow and white: such a good pairing.

    Yellow and white is such a happy combination, especially in daisies.
    It’s nice to hear the evenings are getting longer for you as we get used to the dark closing in earlier and earlier!

    Hello – I’m a bit new to blogs but its rather fun to see what people are getting up to! A quick question about your things for sale – do we (kiwis) pay the US$ price? or should we convert it to NZ$? thanks 🙂
