A rare day off

Today had to go on hold because the electricity was turned off all day.
I had to decide, would I rail against it or just give in. Hey I'm the glass half full type so I let myself have a rare day off. After my walk and meditation this morning early, I started franticly emailing, ringing, planning my day when the power suddenly died. I breathed a sigh of relief and went back to bed. A luxurious couple of hours sleep ensued.
After lunch I strolled around to my friend Clarry's for cups of tea and chocolate cake with her and Zebbie; phew, so nice to get off the treadmill for a while.
I have however been enjoying the treadmill very much lately with some gorgeous commissions. Take a look at these bright beauties for Tamara in Rome.


.... and I can post pictures of these now too. Cushions for my friend Tat who celebrated her 40th birthday on the 31st of July, and her wonderful partner ordered these for her. Tat has a thing about marone and I found these beautiful pieces to make up into some cushions.



including a precious piece of ecclesiastic embroidery.
I hope she likes them. Happy birthday Tat. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
