doodling

we have a new weather warning – heat!

 the snow is melting and the rivers are flooding – how quickly things can change

Rosie has finally taken off her sweater

but she felt a little bit exposed so we created some underwear

a visit to the Hittys and some design instructions from an expert

et voila!

some bloomers that fit a bear – with crocheted silk trim

and a mother-of-pearl button

that design problem solved she now wants overalls

still stitching “the scroll”

I’ve come to think of this as doodling with needle and thread

the small scissors are ones I use every day – good tools are so important

the fabric is a small scrap and can only be cut in 25″ lengths – the tree covers the join

and I’ve been catsitting the neighbour’s cat so Patti made an appearance

now out to water the garden before it gets too hot
