Inspirations



I have always loved History, Literature and Art.........................................................................................................
beautiful things, the stuff of dreams..................................................

flowers, butterflies, fairy tales, embroidered fragments, Chinese blues, Botticelli angels, Blake's visions, Burne-Jones pictures............................................................................................

amongst many other hints and wisps of the past..........................

to catch in my net and weave into mydesigns..................

which I hope others might find as beautiful as their inspirations.

cottage garden soft top!!!!!

On the way back from a meeting about the final show I stopped off at a garden centre to buy some old fashioned flowers for my little garden-honeysuckle,hollyhocks, foxgloves,catmint,lupins, delephiniums and pansies.  It is just as well my little two seater has a fold down roof and that the sun was shining, so I could get everything in to transport back to my little cottage!!! I did receive a few surprised looks from people I passed in the village!!! :-)
