Here are a few things I've been working on this week: some new pairs of baby shoes, a
forget-me-not purse and some new 'simple satchels' to include in
today's shop update. These are strong and sturdy bags, to be worn
across the body with big pockets on the front. I'm enjoying the freedom
of using up lots of the fabric I had been saving for a mystery
'something' but I now realise I need to just cut into- I won't be able to fit it into my suitcase next month...
Outside the bedroom window, this amazing tree is in bloom- I think the flowers look a little like lace. Do you know what type of tree it is? I got out my trusty 'Trees of Northern Europe' book (kindly sent by my friend Helen) and think it might be a Rowan tree, but I don't really know. Keira has now adopted the Tree Book: "I'm actually quite interested of this, Mum."
