Quietly enjoying my Saturday....

Just popping in with some photos of my day - nothing strenuous on the finger. :-)
Saturday was enjoyed by reading poetry and appreciating wonderfuly calming art...
Reaquainting myself with old books of household hints from a century ago (and more beautiful paintings...)
Gazing in wonder at the simple and untouched beauty of newly opened roses...
Laughing about some buttons that are destined for a project for Blossom...
Gratefully acknowledging that my daughter is doing work my hands cannot right now...and her gentle love for our Lily Rose.
Stitching quietly a sweet BOM to share with you in July. Something we can make together for the rest of the year...
Enjoy your weekend too,
Hugs
Jenny

  1. Hi Jenny.
    Your pix looks lovely. A friend's daughter has asked me to teach her to embroider. Any clues on a project that is not too hard for her first go?
    I hope your hands heal. God bless

It's always nice to receive feedback on a blog post, so *thank you* for taking time to comment!
I will try to reply via email unless you are a 'no reply blogger' which means you'll have to check for my reply in the comments. Of course, life is a rather hazardous activity, isn't it? So if I don't respond to your comment that's the reason why - life simply stepped in...
hugs
Jennifer
