April : “Oh to be in England, Now that April’s here…” These lines from Robert Browning’s much loved poem ‘Home thoughts from Abroad’, always pop into my head at the beginning of the month. I remember how much I missed the English springtime in all the years we lived away. This year, perhaps because it has seemed a longer than usual winter, how lovely it is to see the landscape coming to life everywhere. I am so inspired that I shall be working on some floral themed pieces. We are still hoping our house move will go ahead soon, so I may be packing boxes and preparing for a major reset. Such a time of new beginnings……
See you soon,

A FEATHER MAXI SKIRT?! how cool would that be…. or so I have been saying for at least 10 years, since I first saw this class by Anna Maria Horner on Creative Bug. It has taken me so long to get around to crossing this off my ‘to make’ list and yet again, I am left wondering why on earth it is so, when I always knew it was a lovely project.
