Kits
We have some interesting kits from
pretty pillow of Paris complete with blue linen backing fabric and zipper.
The
online catalogue and we'll be happy to order any of the kits we don't currently have.
The early release of kits from
online catalogues. We've already had enquiries about the Winter Elf so do let us know if there is something you'd particularly like and we'll order as soon as we can.
Patterns
Karen Kluba has revised and re-released
Cathedral Woods Goddess, a regal lady in greens and browns who lives in the deep, dark woods. We have sold out and have already re-ordered so we're sorry if you missed her first time around.
Bargain City
For the month of July there are cities in the Bargain Basement London, Paris, New York, Madrid and Moscow and in different styles.
And Finally
Our title comes from the poem
A Tree Song by
Rudyard Kipling (in the book
Puck of Pook's Hill)
«Of all the trees that grow so fair,
Old England to adorn,
Greater are none beneath the Sun,
Than Oak and Ash and Thorn.
Sing Oak and Ash and Thorn, good Sirs
(All of a Midsummer morn)!
Surely we sing no little thing,
In Oak and Ash and Thorn!»
What a debt we owe our trees! They protect us from the worst of the sun and soak up some of our excess Carbon Dioxide. Let's plant more.
We hope you have been able to avoid the extreme midsummer (or midwinter) weather and we wish you well through the month of July.
