beautiful autumn

Autumn
by Emily Dickinson

The morns are meeker than they were,
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry’s cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I’ll put a trinket on.

Rustling under the Leaves

I am here under the leaves, rustling about. Our internet connection was broken for a week but is now back and working. But pictures are still not happening due to a lost card reader. They are building up on my camera so there will be an influx of them once reader is found.
I am off work on a "staycation" at the moment but have come down with a bad cold and am totally germified. I haven't managed to do what I wanted to do. I have managed a bit of stitching, mainly appley for Apple Day cards.
The nights are drawing in and it's getting chilly.

Autumn is Nearly Here

My favourite season. The leaves are turning, the air is cool and the sunsets are amazing. I have my threads and buttons ready to begin stitching the Autumn Bird. I have photos of the finished Summer Bird but unfortunately, I am having trouble locating them on the computer. So pics will follow once the IT faeries have stopped playing games and hiding them from me. I have also been stitching apples again for Apple Day, for our stall in Ely. We are a bit more organised this year and have a bit more input from people in the Ely KTOG.

Owl in the Dark

Just wanted to share this blog with you. I have followed Stephanie Dosen for a while on blogger and on Ravelry. She has a pure magical voice and her songs are from a dark ethereal wispy forest. You can find her here.
