Happy Autumn Equinox

I'm sorry to see the end of summer as I don't feel like I've had a summer this year but at least the sun has appeared today and the cute google squirrel made an appearance!

The light is rather nice at this time of day and I just spotted this leaf with dew drops on the step.



This week I've been putting together some fabric kits for my Etsy shop. The orange and brown patchwork kit below went quite quickly which was brilliant. The packs feature a large centre panel of my Scandi Birds and Flowers fabric.






I'm also preparing some vintage caravan kits which can be used for embroidering or embellishing to create a mixed media work.

A couple of completed projects

I think with the slightly improved weather and the bit extra light on an evening, I've been busying myself with a few projects and staying away from the computer on a night.

Last weekend I cut hundreds, no exaggeration, of fabric squares for patchwork, some vintage and some new. I just had that thing going on where I wanted to mosh up a load of random patterns together and do patchwork.
A week on and all I have to show for it is a small patchwork apron!

I'm sure other things will follow now I have so many bits cut.



I've also been crocheting flowers and doing some fibre felting, some of which will form a brooch.


And lastly, a little cat brooch. 
I need to make a few new things in the coming fortnight as I will be having a stall at a local event on May 3rd.
