Spring is certainly taking on lovely peachy lemony hues here in Bootville.  From the new spring sandals …

[my old ones literally fell apart last week as I was walking through West End - right outside my favourite shoe store “Shays” as it happens - true story! Now “I’m swimming with sharks”

to the spring skirt I found whilst searching for batting …

to the patchwork flower that appeared when I thought I was baking lemon and cardamon cookies  …  I think it was a 30g lack of flour.

Spring was beckoning.  “Come find my colours!’  she sang sweetly as she tickled her soft blueness about my ankles and teased my hair across my cheeks.  I don’t need to be asked twice.  All other plans for the day were shelved and I wallowed in peach and lemon and warm pinks and a little lilac to cool it down.

Spring placemats - with a thrifted linen skirt for the background scraps of patchwork fabric for the details and for the backing …

a rather odd piece of fabric I bought on ebay for 99c.  This heavy linen/hessianc/cotton - not really sure what it is - is covered in large chess pieces of orange and red and yellow.  Spring approaved.

Now do pull up a tea cup sit on the front porch with me and let’s wallow in Spring’s colours - this awfully pretty time of year is my favourite.
