What an amazing week we have had - I can't remember an April like it! Like a lot of you, no doubt, I have spent a lot of time out doors rather than in my 'studio'. I will share a few things I have been up to, but it is not a lot. Firstly I have finished my Butterfly books and they are now in my Etsy shop.
I have also filled in my Textile journal.
Otherwise I have not done a lot on the creative front - just haven't been in the mood this week.
But I did spend a lot of time watching the waxwings which stayed until Friday by which time they had completely stripped the last of the berries off the cotoneaster. This was the best shot I got, heavily cropped.
At one time we counted 22 of them on the TV aerial.
Otherwise I have been trying to get rid of some of these
Although very bright and cheerful, they are overtaking my garden.
MrT has been looking after his onions
I don't drink this yogurt drink ALL the time, but here are about a year's worth of bottles marking the onion rows. Note little 'fence' which seems to have kept the local cats off.
Most of the time I have just been enjoying these flowers which have burgeoned this week.
aubretia
polyanthus
plum blossom
spotted laurel (aucuba)
and finally a close-up of those polyanthus.
Oh, but I have been getting my next postcard ready for Postman's Knock. You'll have to wait to see that.
Have a lovely week.
Jill
