Silence for a week....and a dove

Just to say that I will be blogging again as soon as I have got my talk and slide show finshed for Embroiderers Guild on Saturday....what with doing this, and selling my vintage clothing collection on ebay, I have had little time for anything else, but I will soon be back with ideas that are "simmering", and some lovely photographs....I'm looking forward to making again, now that I have gone through that "flat dessert time" which hits us all every now and then...when creativity seems far away and one wonders if it will ever return....but we should know that it always does.
A dove of peace and some cherubs....detail from a small stitched panel.
I have had some very peaceful, quiet days writing the plan for the talk...it is about my work, but also about my life, and I am now sure that the book I have wanted to write for years is going to happen, and I'm aiming to start it after Christmas....
