the tree ....

 This is a new door decoration that I made a while back and forgot to share - if you look closely you'll see a wee grey mouse with a tartan tummy nestled amongst the branches - the flowers are from a pattern by Quilts by Cheri .....






 Here's the February tree - there are a few different ones on it .....






I finally did a finish on this piece - I quite like the sentiment - the 'my' and I' can be changed ...



  
Apparently, I don't have a suitable candle/table mat for February so I crocheted this - it worked up quickly ...





whatever we do in this life
no one gets out alive

imbolc .....

On the Pagan Calendar, today is Imbolc - it marks the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox - it is the beginning of spring (although not in my neck of the woods).  We usually celebrate on February 2 with Ground Hog Day knowing the spring equinox (not necessarily spring) is 6 weeks away.  This is one of Isobel's  designs....






let us nurture
the spirit of renewal
and embrace the light
of the lengthening days
