time flies...

...a month gone by

since the last happy tales

and as the weather chills at night

our rayburn, 'Martha' is lit 

warming the cottage, giving hot water and fabulous meals in her oven

we are busy making new stock for our shop,
crochet tea cosies, mug cosies and handbags made from recycled fabrics
to name a few items, coming soon...
our shop also has an end of summer sale now on ...

we have also been busy making jams and chutneys

and lots of pickled eggs as we now have...

....chickens!




Henrietta, Hyacinth, Dori, Cheryl, Goldie, Marge and Chuck
the cockerel

are happily pecking away in our garden and giving us lots of eggs

they are a real delight to have

and am pleased to say that the dogs have taken to them too



talking of dogs...
Finley has been a bit poorly again!

same problem as before, but happily on the mend

a brave tough dog by all accounts

treated with kid gloves for a speedy recovery

...bit traumatic that it was!

courses...

nellie and eve will be holding courses in the new year
after the success and positive feedback received
at The Big Skills weekend.


so if you would like to learn how to
crochet knit or sew

or perhaps you know the basics but
would like to learn more

then please check back shortly for course dates

its a beautiful time of the year now

the last of the tomatoes harvested 

we are experiencing

such gorgeous weather

time to get in the autumn garlic and early broad beans

in the veg plot and sow another handful of rocket

and salads that will hopefully

overwinter in the greenhouse...



thank you to our new follows, we really appreciate it and your comments too


till next time soon... be happy, true to yourself and get to know the people you like more
