I made some cushion covers for my shop update this week- one is made from some vintage poppy fabric I'd been hoarding, and the other two are from antique kimono coats that I carefully unpicked, although some bits of lining and hand-stitched seams do remain.
The very cheerful daisy plants shown in the first photo are growing along our path and I admire them every day. We used to have some growing by the kitchen window in an old house of ours- I wrote about them once here.
I recently read of the death of the Polish poet Wislawa Szymborska, and through that article, I discovered this most beautiful poem of hers, Clouds. You should have a read, if you don't know it already.
