Hello everyone,
It feels like such a long time since I last
posted, indeed it's been a while since I spent time in my little craft room.
It's been a busy summer here in the Atkinson house. We've spent three out of
six weeks in the sunshine, had babysitting duties as Miss Ava had her
operation, prepared and packed one off to university and got the last of four
children ready to enter year 9 of high school! So, as the title to this post
states - life is finally getting back to normal.
I had some exciting news in the summer.... I've
been invited to be Pinworthy Guest over at 'A Vintage Journey'. After years of
teaching Art & Craft to adults and children, I must admit to having a few
butterflies as I plan my contribution. I'm putting it down to having a few
years out due to ill health but fingers crossed it is beginning to come
together. As you will probably understand, I can't show you anything just yet
but keep checking and I will post a picture and tutorial as soon as I'm
allowed.
Are you enjoying the weather? We've had lots of
rain here in Yorkshire but this has led to a few cool and misty Autumnal
mornings. I love this time of year; the colours and smells take me back to
childhood. I grew up in a rural village and this time of year was bustling with
activity. As a child, we learnt the Keats poem ‘to Autumn’ by rote! For me it
summaries Autumn perfectly (although I do like Mr. Cleaver’s version in Bridget
Jones)!
Well, I had better crack on as the deadline is
getting too close for comfort. I hope you’re having a fun day and manage a
little crafty time too.
Creative hugs for now
J xx
