I'm sorry that I've been so neglectful of harebells -- in 2012 I will be better! As a start to the year, here are 2 very special paintings / prints that will, by various magical means, be in our lives from here on.. They are a beautiful way to begin.

'The Acrobat': Kevin Low, print artist

'The Bear and the Lamb II': Sarah Ball, artist

Leaf Drop

Autumn air, walks with doglet, colours changing, turning chilly.

Generally means that a cold is on it's way.

Excuse for a toddy.

Stitching

The end of the Summer has found me doing various knitting and sewing stitches. Here are some 'outcomes':

From a great pattern published by Merchant and Mills.

Autumn hooded jacket.

Blanket for the wee one.

I love all the different textures and techniques involved, even though they are v. time-consuming.

Tiny features

This week featured an unexpected and flying visit to London. A (very) small one has arrived.

Falling in love again.
