fairy tail quilt

For the fairy tail quilt is waiting and waiting i could not get any ideas to go on and today I made this little block
a simple block

and here is the same block the middle part is folded now
I think this will work  so now I can go on

a basket from scraps

All my new shiny threads in a basket made from scraps 
and I have lots and lots of scraps 
noting is waist  all is useful

The cat and here friends

now she has a face
no name yet

the Cat

Cats Sleep Anywhere

Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.
Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.
Open drawer, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.
Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.
Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.

Eleanor Farjeon (1881 - 1965)

This will do

My dear friend Willy made some beautiful machine embroider pieces for me some time ago
now I will use it as a cover for a new folded book
I just love these books and now it will have a great cover

no sun today

working on faces in the forest
little moments between work
stitching and creating

summer day

a lovely summer day stitching in the sun
more progress in the forest
the birds and a little snail

let it grow

The Forest
by Leonard C.Mayer

The trees stand tall and stately
Surveying their domain
The first to glimpse the sunrise
The first to feel the rain

The flowers add some colour
to mostly brown and green
Their fragrance bathes the air
and makes it smell pristine

The wind sets all in motion
and makes things come alive
it brings the rain and pollen
that lets this world survive

The sun lends warmth and comfort
to all the things that grow
it is perfect for their needs
high noon ore evening glow

The earth provides nutrition
and serves the mother role
Even the air that,s needed
comfort from her heart and soul
