busy

A busy Easter bank holiday weekend, have five ring pillow orders to fill and ship out for tomorrow, have spent the days cutting and stamping and sewing and stuffing.  Most especially fiddling to get things just in their nicest, best order.  Love being so busy with orders, wish every week brought me so many!

In 'real life' we have four weddings this week in the flower shop, everyone is tying the knot it seems.  I love making wedding flowers, maybe not so much as making pillows but close.  Wish I could sew all day.

hollyhock

I sowed some hollyhock seeds in the spring, and after no action all summer, they have made a surprise appearance in October.  Some cosmos came up, too.  What a weird year.

cake and company

Henry and I spent Sunday berry picking with friends on the road near their farm, before being treated to tea and homemade cream cake.  We decided that we'd take our chances despite the grey skies and were surprised when the sun came out and we had to shed our jackets.  Lots of jam making today!
