Safe and sound

Once the arrangements for yesterday had been completed, I went into my sewing room, to get the tripod for my camera. The tripod has not been out of its bag since Wonderwool Wales. Lying behind the tripod was....my Dragon brooch! Relief!
I don't know how she got into the bag....I am just pleased that she is safely home.

Samhain /Halloween

Whichever you are celebrating, I wish you a safe and enjoyable evening.

Autumn colour

 The Autumn colour that we have been promised is finally beginning to show. Above, fruits of the Wild Service tree.  Below, leaves turning colour, Witchhazel ( Hamamelis mollis ).

Missing!

I had to attend an event, last Friday, and was planning on wearing my beloved Dragon brooch, my Sigil.  Despite turning the house almost inside out, and upside down, I have been unable to find it.
 
I know that I wore it to the last Guild meeting, but cannot remember anything further.
Wish me luck in finding her.

Shades and tones.

Today, at work..................
 
 Preparing to send out a large order ( ....to a well-known Yarn Store...)....
and drying dyed silk hankies.

( There were sixteen different shades of yarn on the table [top pic]. Sadly, my camera does not reproduce colour as well as I would like.)

Ready for Winter

The weather has finally turned. It is stormy - lots of rain, and blustery winds. Although it is not cold yet, we will be ready when it comes.
