Picture That Changed While I Wasn't Looking: The Wonderful Tapestry Flower

 

 

 

A wonderful sewn flower garden and space, where stillness grows and the eye is invited to slow and the mind to wander – isn't that wonderful?

Stitch by stitch, creating the golden-yellow petals and the brown centre of this sun-kissed flower. Slowly, green lines are embroidered, forming the stem, and the brief pause between stitching turns into a leaf.

What Happened When the Hedgehog Stopped for Tea?

 

 

 

 

A little mouse and a hedgehog sitting together on a cosy and mossy woods logs in a secluded forest glade, surrounded by deep blueberry bushes, ferns and herbs.

They were both relaxed and happy, and each was holding a cup of hot tea.

"How are things going for you, my dear?" The little hedgehog, with a tilt to its ears, inquired with a gentle smile, and its yellow glasses perched just so.

 "My day is going better than a cat in a sunbeam!" said the mouse, happily sipping a hot cuppa from a lovely porcelain cup.

 

And perhaps that is what the Cupboard keeps best of all — the little moments we might otherwise walk past.

Follow the thread: Moments like these

If you feel like opening another drawer, there may be a small moment waiting there for you.
