Reading through it really lifted my spirits when I first popped in a few days ago..perhaps it was the heady fragrance of all that lavender! The fabric looks perfect on the angel : ) What an excellent way to use up the doily off cuts..love the angel fridge magnets. I'm not surprised that you've never done anything with the cotton gloves before now...I find them entirely useless in the garden so your hand to heart inspiration is just brilliant! Golly, that's awfully close to home isn't it, the loss of a son like that...would you ever really recover I wonder. You dear kind friend. The next door washing line looked just like yours a few weeks ago as my dear friend Margaret went through washing all her soft toys & blocks in anticipation of a brand new grand-daughter soon.

Love the craft work....the angels are too sweet.<br />Isn't it amazing what you can do with garden gloves? Very clever.<br />Cheers, Anita.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136895163590757519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-34488398870793851272014-01-24T18:11:11.872+13:002014-01-24T18:11:11.872+13:00You sound so light and relaxed in this post Julie....You sound so light and relaxed in this post Julie.<br />I guess those "teas" in the afternoon help that mood ;)<br />It sounds like a vacation for the mind and body to sit out in the openness and take it all in with music.<br />Just wonderful, and I can smell that lavender from here, oh wait that is just the ones you sent me :)<br />Those tin angel wings are too genius!<br />It is funny cause one of my kitties came from a street cat named BOB that roamed my old apt building for years, his off spring were all over the neighborhood and then I ended up with one of his kittens when I went back there 13 years ago. So I would love to read this book and hear the tale of this cat bobs journey.<br />AmyVintage Market Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05506584020887579178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-30632918290861888892014-01-24T10:14:39.136+13:002014-01-24T10:14:39.136+13:00Love your angel and her gorgeous dress - such pret...Love your angel and her gorgeous dress - such pretty fabric. The pantaloons, bracelet and hankie make beautiful finishing touches with your special stamp on it.<br />Those angel fridge magnets are so sweet too - you really do have some great ideas.<br />How sad for Lois losing her son - he was too young - she will appreciate your kind gesture and knowing that someone out there cares about her.<br />I love my heart Julie - it is pinned to my inspiration board and I have a sniff every time I pass - thank you!<br /><br />Well I keep telling myself to plant lavender so I can have a supply too... our vege garden has gone to rack and ruin this summer as my husband has been working on his boat! <br />You've inspired me to grow lavender there next year - then I won't have to buy it from the lavender lady at the Clevedon market .... hopefully! What variety and name are you growing?<br /><br />Love those red poppies too - when I'm in France in June/July they are growing everywhere, self seeded all along the country roads and gardens.<br />They are planted at the soldiers memorial at the entrance to the village where my daughter live.<br /><br />The book sounds lovely and now added to my list!<br /><br />Hugs and enjoy your weekend.<br />Shane xox<br /><br />Shane Pollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06674612132049839026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-28536357187265190102014-01-23T22:11:33.421+13:002014-01-23T22:11:33.421+13:00Every year I tell myself I must get some french la...Every year I tell myself I must get some french lavendar but never do - is this yours or from down the road? I love the tape you have sewn to the heart for your friend Lois - what a sweet person you are. Your teddies look quite relaxed strung out on the line (hehehe), I hope they all got ear massages when you were done though! Love your crafting projects and had a giggle with what you've done with the gloves - I've been making monkeys out of Dad's socks - not sure what HE would have said about that!!Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-86417423790662220422014-01-23T19:46:40.983+13:002014-01-23T19:46:40.983+13:00I have promised myself I am going to have days out...I have promised myself I am going to have days out at the lavender field I found last year just as soon as it re-opens this Summer. I have just finished the book and am on the follow up 'the world according to Bob' - your son is right, it could have been written for a child, but as you know, I particularly read childrens books so no doubt thats why I like it! I am having some difficult times at the moment and the simple things in life are keeping me going. Your posts are always worth sitting down with a cup of tea for. I like the heart you made your friend, it's really special - these would sell in your shop surely? it's the kind of thing someone wants to give to a friend but doesn't know until they see it!

The Angels for the fridge look sweet, the lace wings turned out nice, would rusty wire work too??<br />Your garden is looking pretty, but I bet the wind is causing problems. Have the kittens & mother cat moved on? I haven't read that book, but one called 'Dewey, the Library Cat'.Leeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616599642690765779noreply@blogger.com
