Vintage fabric & ink~

Found this small piece of fabric in a basket at an antique shop~

It is linen-like...

Cotton-like with a texture?

I don't know my fabrics, I just LOVE to draw on them!

Sepia ink on soft white~

Little faces very happy to have a sunny day!

The hum of bees in the gardens~

The most welcome sound!

I think of so many things when I'm heading to the garden!

New designs...

What's for dinner... laundry... dishes... dusting...

Calendar programs... fabric collections...

When I bend to pull some weeds~ those thoughts vanish. 

To touch the earth...

Face to face with flowers...

Bees swarming around my head...

I'm content.

My mind quiets~

My soul is fed.

Friends in nature~

Loved, treasured and nurtured!

Hope you have a few minutes to take a little walk today~

Earth Day & Today~

I always try to sneak in a nature walk on Earth Day.

We had grey skies yesterday... nobody told the flowers!

They were just as happy & brilliant as always~

A true Springtime~

Color is slowly opening up.

The sweetest faces!

  

On a warmer day the pussy willows would be humming with bees!

This is today.

It looks like fairy dust!

Angry fairy dust~

(giggle)

My dad always called late Spring snow,

"Poor man's fertilizer."

(Every little bit of Nitrogen helps)

I think he was trying to find the silver lining~

When the flowers are ready for warmth... so am I!

Wishing you a beautiful day, Sweet Friends~
