    Having a dress form or tailors’ dummy can make making your own clothes so much easier. It’s very difficult pinning things to your back and then drawing on yourself with a pen! It’s equally difficult trying to pin a hem and check that it’s straight. They’re not so…

I never get tired of seeing fields full of daffodils.

Blossom, so much of it this year ๐Ÿ’–

Blossom spam! So far March has been a lot less we Blossom spam!

So far March has been a lot less wet than February, and there has been plenty of sunshine and some almost warm days.

In the past, when lionish weather has come back, I've seen it as nature trying to trick us. It seems like spring, and then it is winter again. Maybe summer is on its way, then no, we've regressed back to winter.

Now I don't see it like that. Sunny days are a treat, and a promise of what is to come ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ’–

You know that feeling when you feel inspired by na You know that feeling when you feel inspired by nature and the changing seasons, and you want to do something or make something but you don't know what?

Creative invitations are open ended ideas that invite noticing and creative exploration. There is no expectation to produce something perfect, done in a certain way or even finished. The process matters as much as the end result, and it's fine to try them, ignore them, abandon them, or take them further.

Here are some creative invitations for March:

๐ŸŒผ Take inspiration from the daffodils'  frilly trumpets and make something frilly. An easy way to do this is to add too many stitches when crocheting or knitting. Another is to deliberately pull at a hem while sewing it.

๐ŸŒผ Spot yellow things. Obviously daffodils are yellow, but you might spot other yellow things, natural and human made.

๐ŸŒผ Step outside at sunset and notice the colours in the sky. Before the clocks change, where I live sunset is at about 6.30, then afterwards an hour later. There are sometimes lovely sunsets in March.

๐ŸŒผ  Stitch the weather. You could add some applique as well if you wanted to. Sometimes there are all four seasons in March!

Often it's the colours that I find most inspiring. After winter, the blossom is a change. And even though the lichen was already there, noticing the blossom means noticing the lichen as well. 

One creative invitation for February was to start something with no intention of finishing it, so that is what I am doing.
