Just channelling a bit of summertime here from a frosty little place at the bottom of the world.
These cushion covers were made from my small collection of vintage poppy-printed fabrics. They're part of my shop update today.
Dreaming of resting against one of these on a garden swingseat, lemonade in hand and accompanied by birds in surrounding trees… surely those days can't be too far away?
I hope the sun is shining on you today.
Oh, these are beautiful! poppies are among my most favorite flowers!~

The poppy fabric is gorgeous. My grandmother had amazing poppies in her perennial beds. Thanks for the memory. 🙂
Our veggie bed has a patch of beautiful nasturtiums that are blooming like crazy right now.

Believe me, the sun IS shining on us here in South Texas. It was 104 degrees when I got in my car yesterday afternoon. We’re ready for the opposite problem.

Lovely and your description of your “frosty little place at the bottom of the world” made me smile. We’re sweltering in Colorado, but luckily, none of the humidity of east coast.

Those are beautiful Melissa. Today was actually nice ( in the 80”s with sun for the first part and much cooler then it has been) and now it is raining which we needed and I am thankful.

Poppies are dear to my heart – my second daughter is called Poppy! The poor thing is 5 in two weeks but currently home with chicken-pox, such a shame when the sun is shining and warm this week here in Stockholm. Lovely fabric!
