After all sorts of problems with my website including a virus, I’m finally able to post here again. The last couple of weeks have been super busy- all my energies have gone into studying and it’s such bliss to be able to devote some time to a little bit of sewing, knitting and gardening. The garden has started to reawaken, with…
Linking up with Sarah of the wonderful Say! Little Hen – sharing what is happening in my little corner of the world… We’ve not had any snow here 🙁 despite me willing the skies to send down a few flurries. It’s cold though and wrapping up warm and going for long walks keeps me happy. I marvel at the way nature copes with…

Both properties are National Trust and although both houses are…
…getting to know all about you! From one of my favourite films The King And I, this line sums up what things are like for us here at the moment. One of the most wonderful things about moving somewhere new is exploring. After a hectic few months finding our new house, packing up our old home and moving into our…
Phew – it’s hot! Summer has finally arrived! The sunshine seems to change everything doesn’t it? People are out strolling through the town, pubs are buzzing, blankets are out on the grass and the beach is busy! I’m going to be honest with you – it’s actually a little too hot for me – I’m not one of those people…
The last couple of weeks have been very busy, leaving little time to sew and even less to blog. My sons have moved home and we formed part of most of the removal crew, there has been a trip back to my home town in Kent and one to London to see Coldplay. I love having lots to do but…
