tiny happy

Geraniums are growing in the back garden – I have some pink and some white. Geraniums are trusty, timeless flowers that remind me of childhood (my sister and I tried to make 'beautiful perfume' from them on numerous occasions.)

Also pictured: a Christmas present to myself: a new summer top I made from Nani Iro (the piece i bought back here) in sea/sky colours. I feel almost as though this fabric was designed especially for me. I used the Scout Tee pattern.

Some more favourite things these days include:

H is for Hawk, by Helen Macdonald – a beautifully written book about the grieving process and nature.

The Haunted Man  by Bat for Lashes - my current walking music

These sweet tarts – I hope to make before Christmas (if there's time..!)
