Almost Easter

 

Well I don't know about you but Easter has kind of crept up on me this year. I had a hankering to admire my little collection this year so made a little display of my favourite pieces.

A friend several years ago gave me an Orchid piece which in usual Michelle fashion I tied it on a palm tree and crossed my fingers. I have been waiting for a blossom...and surprise this week....it's flowered. So pretty! Apparently it's known as an Easter Orchid. I have no clue if that's correct.

I've also had a few other pops of colour showing in the garden of neglect at the moment.....blue gingers and a little Dendrobium Orchid spikes.

We've celebrated DD birthday with first ever, from scratch, on her own, cake from Granddaughter. She was pretty chuffed with herself.

Book 2 in Textile Tales is complete. Sorry about the photo quality but it's such a dull day here.

And this ended up being my favourite page.

Book 3 is underway.....JANE EYRE. I was that annoying girl in English class that adored this book and that has never wavered. My Daughter gifted me for my 70th a beautiful gilt edged copy.

Currently working on this page spread.

Art space....I  am calling my galahs done....I've named it "Meringandan Mates " after the place and folks who inspired it. Really enjoyed creating this one.

Still art related I framed up my little watercolour fishes to gift to my Sunday Stitchers birthday friend....De. Also enjoyed putting this challenge together. We went with all things about your birthday month....zodiac sign, Chinese sign, birthstone, birth flower.....hence the little piscean fishes lol! 

It's a showery old day here today so after some chores I think it will be back to Jane Eyre and a coffee. I hope you are all enjoying your day.

Namaste and Blessings friends,
