September

The first of September today,
and after a few days of sunshine and rain
you can smell it in the garden :
autumn is near !

Oh sure,
there still are some raspberries on the bush
the rose has some flowers again
the phlox start blooming for the second
(or third) time
but something is changing
and I can smell it before I really see it.

But for my last Art Market I'm working
on some new items to take with me.
One is a new bird piece
bigger than the usual 20 x 20 cm.
The dark blue background was made already a long time ago,
now I have the right bird to go with it
a barn owl.

This was a week ago
but I was busy stitching and forgot to take
new photos of the progress yet.
The tiniest bits are attached now but lots more stitching is needed.

Besides all this there is the plan for some more felting too
. . . . .
