Little beaver

I have been beavering away in my little space in the inner courtyard, doing what you may ask, guess! yup flowers, flowers and more flowers.
I thought the production line was quite, well productive, until I separated them into wands, bouquet, bird cages and whatever, then realised that they didn´t go far. Keep going, keep on going

Although I did take some time out to do some secret stitching as Rebecca was away in the UK and I have embroidered three sides and the top of the treasure/memory box

I also took the plunge today and went in the pool
Now I hate being cold
But being told the pool was 28C was quite enticing
The temp in the shade was about 31.5C
Great my sort of temps
OMG it was cold!!!!
Even when you get out and ´cool´off in the gentle breeze then get back in
It was still COLD
I did do a few lengths so that was a gentle break into the exercise, no point in pushing it


Busy week, been asked to attend the meetings with the photographers and officient, its all go
Have a great week
take care

  2. The pool was one of the must haves, along with steps into it. The steps are built in such a way that you can still swim right up to the top to get a reasonable length, but they also act as a heater with the shallower water which will be ideal for the little ones when they come to stay. Hope you can stay warm xcx

  4. The pool looks enticing but I must admit that I don't do cold either. It sounds like you're going to need lots of flowers for all you've got planned but I'm sure all the hard work will be worth it in the end, it's going to look fabulous. Your secret stitching project sounds lovely, I look forward to seeing it once you're able to show it.

    1. It´s rather nice in the late evening when the air temp is similar to the water, cooling for the night when our temps are about 24 ish. Its amazing how the wire keeps disappearing, I am now thinking what gets done is fine and if not have to rethink. I was pleased with the box, Each side is different and incorporating stumpwork. xcx
