Something new...

I love having Mr E home on holidays!
We quickly fell back in to that lovely relaxed flow we enjoyed when he worked from home for more than two years. 
It's also brought a contented homemaker smile to my face because I can bake delights for our morning tea and know we'll be sharing them together over a hot cuppa rather than him unwrapping some at work for a rushed snack between customers.


Yesterday I made buttermilk scones from spelt flour with a generous sprinkling of dried fruit...


After morning tea I spent some time deciding how I'm going to put my Christmas Stitch-along design together. I've had four ideas so far but I think one is making more sense to me the longer I let in simmer in my thoughts...


The silver grey bird print is definitely going to be part of it, and I quite like the green contrast...


This will be a free stitch-along and if I get some time in the next week or so to immerse myself in it the first block might be ready for you around mid-September. 


The silver and green fabrics are from the "Yuletime" range by Wenche Wolff Hatling for Lecien and should be in stores now. Isn't it wonderfully icy? I might even forget we have a summer Christmas in Australia with this hanging on my wall.

have a blessed day,
