Welcome Autumn

 Autumn is here - and what better way of welcoming it than with a big pot of Butternut Squash and Orange soup on the hob, and some pumpkin and crab apple decorationsl!

Something with Stripes

 This week the theme is Something with Stripes. 
I have just finished reading a wonderful book by one of my favourite authors.  I think a decorative book adds to the overall enjoyment of reading it and I've occasionally had to purchase a book simply because I love the cover!

On The Table

 This week the theme is On the Table.
These tulips are the last remnants of a bunch of flowers I was given - I think they  still have a beauty all of their own.

Pink

The theme this week is Pink.
Although I love the pink roses I think I love the mauve and white jug more!

Here is my favourite place to curl up with a good book, and no interruptions!

Lovely Summer

 This week the theme is Lovely Summer.
Last year my dear friend gave me a tin tub with this pretty succulent plant in it.  I had no idea it would bloom and was thrilled to see these little pink flowers opening up on it this week.

Past Times

 This week the theme is Past Times.  
I love the workmanship on this beautiful old Singer sewing machine - I wish they decorated modern ones like this!







 My lovely blog friend Lynn has a collection of wonderful rusty objects in her garden and she inspired me to photograph my old sewing machine outdoors - although it did come back indoors when I had finished!
