...i wonder......

...is it me finding them?
...or are they finding me???!
( getting a bit spooky but this one was lurking in my post office
......waiting for me!)

it has been a wonderful summer....
but i'm trying not to notice how quickly time is passing....
and that before we know it we will be back to school...
.....and autumn will be creeping in....
.....those nights are already starting to get dark earlier..
...but we are enjoying some amazing sunsets 
and a bright full moon!
....on my summer travels I have been busy squirrelling
some lovely vintage items.....

...and i have at last got round to some serious stitching too...
...look out for a re- stock of my etsy shop shelves
at the beginning of september!

...when a squirrel is a beaver....

...i have been beavering away all weekend
....making lavender ellies
 for my etsy shop....
...i love to see their shapes emerging...
....all the same but different....
....and gradually coming to life...
...i worked until midnight last night..
....only stopping occasionally
for a little scooby snack....
...and trying not to lose focus...
...distracted momentarily
by my ever-increasing collection
of crafty magazines...
(help i have so many!)
..and admiring my latest thrifty find!
***
...but just a little more beavering
for the squirrel today...
...and nothing is truly squirrelled
...until they have rosy cheeks
and a bow in their hair!
