day 25

 The ginkgo tree in our garden
is slowly turning from green to gold.
Since last year I know it is 
a "she-tree"
It took her probably about thirty-five years to mature.
But last year she bore fruit for the very first time !
You can't eat them, some even say they stink when crushed,
but I think it's great
a "MOTHER  TREE"

I just read the most wonderful book by Suzanna Simard
about the wisdom of the forest :
"Finding the Mother Tree"

day 22

What I like about making jewels
is the endless possibilities
in shape, colour and stitch.
Most of the time even I don't know
how it will turn out in the end.
I often spend a lot of time deciding what colour combo
will be the best for that particular felted item.
And yes, more than once stitches are unpicked
and made again in another way !

a wet felted hollow brooch with some lace inside
stitched with silk, (variegated) cotton
and glass beads and seed beads

 We are happy
to have lots of birds visiting our garden.

give you a low-maintenance garden : poor insects and birds !)
We LOVE the birds that visit here !
