Fun in the September Sun

Ahhh I LOVE September, the seasons changing, crisp bright mornings, farmers bringing in their crops. We have a theory that every year the week after all the children go back to school the weather is stunning. Mr Twigs parents are both retired teachers and can confirm this, much to their disgust:) We often used to go on holiday during this time before Twiglet started school and had some cracking weather.
So considering the little chap is now at school, we did our best. I visited the Sculpture Park with my pal on Thursday and we needn't have worried about having nothing to talk about without the children to distract us. We twittered on for 3 hours and managed to fit in a really long walk and coffee, cake and sunshine. Tiptop.
This weekend, we had a terrific time in the old dinghy at Filey, the weather was GORGEOUS, (if only my photos did it justice). I even sloped off alone and had a swim in the sea, boy did I ache the next day - what an old codger!Sunday was spent round at Nana and Grandad Twigs for a barbecue, so we really did squeeze all we could from the glorious September sunshine. Hope you had a super time too.
I haven't done much crafting this week as I'm doing a bit of furniture and stash shifting at the moment, so all will be revealed at a later date. I also have another little project lined up next week, but as they say on News at Ten and we'll have more on that story later.............

  4. yes, this time of year is also my favourite as well, the changing colours of the trees, cosy nights, xmas just around the corner. The photo's of Filey are great, I love visiting there. A little project lined up, can't wait.... I'm in the middle of finishing something off which I hope to list on Folksy this weekend.

  5. Hi Twiggy... your name was picked out as one of my PIF winners. If you email me your address I'll try to get the Pif done sooner rather than later.

  6. lovely photographs, the scenery is fantastic! By the way, I completely agree with Mr Twiggy's parents. It is always much nicer weather once we have gone back to school.

  7. Hello Twiggy, I love the idea of LIBERATING linens! What a fantastic word, I may have to steal that from you. Looking forward to seeing how you liberate the tapestry if it's still there.

    Love Fi x

  11. I had that theory - but then we too my mother-in-law to England one September and the weather wasn't up to much.

    What lovely pictures.

  12. Sounds like heaven! Loved the pics you shared. What a lovely time of year here too! Thanks for responding to my ranting. The middle class pays for everything doesn't it no matter the country or boundaries? Hugs,Jan

  13. Great photos. I'd love to come up to your neck of the woods sometime? Filey looks like a very nice place to be. September really was a great month weatherwise. x

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
