A Garden in Bloom

Staying in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, right now as we often do, we visited Crathes Castle near Banchory on a beautiful sunny day. The early summer flowers were at their best.

With a view to Bloom, these red and yellow poppies caught my eye.

A gathered book

The theme for Stroud Artist’s Books this month was gather which made me think of smocking. 

After various different attempts at stitching the page sections together this is how it ended up. Sage green cotton rag handmade Khadi paper, linen thread, dark grey linen to cover boards, & dotty paper for the endpapers.
