Purple Hills


Another extended weekend with gardening and sewing projects.
The sky in Ontario is spectacular and our area is known as the "purple hills".


Early morning walks with my dog Skip is one of my favourite thing to start the day. The mist is rising, dew on the milkweed and the sun is coming up. How fortunate I am.



I made a wreath from my overgrown garden.

The next rainy day was perfect to go down to business. I have an upcoming winter craft show in Germany. A group of very talented  women are getting together. Paper crafts, children's knitwear, fabric  (yah that's me), whimsical teddy bears ( you want to buy them all) and jewellery is for sale.




This is a table runner number one, leaning against an old orchard ladder. I choose fabrics in orange, lime green, grey with a splash of brown. Both sides are done in a light grey tone. The colour doesn't do justice. I will post the finished runner this week. I have to find the right backing. Zipper bags are also in production.
