No, no it’s midsummer and the pixies are terribly notorious for hiding Huxley. Huxley and scissors. I hope an aging hippie offers me a feather today!

Those pesky pixies! I might have known. I do hope you encounter a gentle aging hippy as I don’t think I see many these days. Thanks always for reading and for leaving a comment that makes me laugh x

Oh you’re not hanging in the right spots - plenty of aging hippies in Glastonbury!

I appreciate the lack of world events here. I crave spaces free from the chaos. Your posts are soothing and excite my imagination.

I’m in love with that blue bottle in the first picture, I can’t stop looking at it! I’ve been enjoying your little squares of patchwork too, I hope to see them joined one day?

Although in reality I am always reading your lovely warm human posts, they nevertheless feel to me to be a two way conversation as I wander through the scenes you create for me in my mind

Another beautiful post. I love the patchwork as well as your paintings and the stories, too. A treat on Sunday mornings which I always look forward to.

Your little quilt pieces are beautiful, there is a special beauty in the mix of fabrics and shapes which shimmers in a way that perfectly plotted things just don't. I love the peace in your Sunday notes. They help me feel calm in the chaos and I feel inspired to take a slower approach to my own jostling crowd of project ideas!❤️‍🔥as a fellow attic-dweller my thoughts are with you at this boiling hot time!

Your little patchworks are so sweet. I especially enjoyed your experiences living in an attic space...sounds perfectly perfect to me...

A beautiful post and I especially love the tiny pieces of quilt. I too have the Hitchens book, and sadly was unable to see the exhibition, and it is so lovely.
