... because the trees whispered to us when we went a'walking...
... because i have my boots on...
...because i have started wearing 'layers'...
I know it's Autumn because all the signs are there x
Happy harvests x
...and these were some photos from the sunny day my little mouse and i played with the Minnie Mouse ears that are featured in the 'photo'...
And how can you get a good sense of scale and size from the picture alone. I am not adding a ruler / measure to the picture as it doesn't add to the 'scene'.
This wreath is quite a large size but really, only the shot with my head in, shows it's size... so i have been around the house looking for appropriate hanging spaces with the right amount of light...
It is like a QUEST that never ends.
I love the possibilities that photography offers.
So, aswell as talking about the beauty and crafting of Autumn, i might start showing off a few decorations and 'how to's' on the blog, if that's ok....
Shaker style felt heart: red and white is such a winning combination for christmas.
Today, i have mainly been making Pippi Birds: and here are a pile of Pippi's in their various states of undress...
Some have had a few embroidered stars added. Some are still naked. Some have their feet attatched but many are still handicapped. 
For many people, Birds = Spring. Not for me. The feltiness and rich embroidery on these make me think of wooly socks and winter nights. They are a pretty adornment / gift anytime of year but i happen to making them now. I don't know if they are going into the internet shops yet...
I like the fact that my work means i can just 'sew what i like' whenever the fancy takes me but... there was a long list of needed jobs that didn't get accomplished today as i felt the desire to make Pippi's.

My BIGhearted boy!! He has been made for a wholesale order to a local shop. He might go in HERE or HERE i just don't know. I think it's nice to keep somethings 'just for the craft stall'??? i'll decide later. Nice tho ain't he?
And, a new Ellie went into HERE
So, like i said, no major news from The Pond - just a few bits n pieces.
in my car, i am king. Not in an arrogant, road rage kind of a way, but in a way that makes me feel SUPERB! i love the freedom that my car affords me. My driving licence is the passport that tells me, each and every morning "today, you can do whatever you want. You can go wherever you chose...." and in that breath, i feel totally free. i would give up so many things in my life, long before i gave up my right to drive.
The passenger seat carries my essentials: Shopping that i got. The handbag i take with me. The scarf i might need if i feel like one.... an old apple core... the foot well filled with half drunk bottles of water.
The car is mine and mine alone. i choose the time. i choose the pace. i choose the music. i choose the place.
I wonder if MrsB has this sense of control, freedom, adultness, peace, when she runs?
