240609- a day in hours

So for today, not quite the 3x3. Instead I decided to take a photo or two every hour for 12 hours, inspired by The Clothes Horse.

0900- breakfast in the garden


1000-sewing in my room, and a song that made my hair stand on end


1100- sorting out my cottons


1200- an early lunch of coleslaw, ham and bread with home made elderflower cordial, the sound of birds, floral cushions and murikami. perfect.


1300- meeting my close friend jamie and her son noah for a drink. isn't he perfect?


1400- he has the most beautiful eyes, just like his mother!


1400- hungry, and sleepy noah.


1500- Noah sleeps on, and I head back with three new threads.


1600- Insense and Bob Dylan

1700- Some time to think.

1800- hair all bundled up


1900- Dinner of quiche, salad and an apple.


2000- a cup of tea to work out what to do next with this piece...

2100- Finished, just to be mounted for [4inch]. Do you like it?





(my three)

This was great. I love that peacock detail. I find it so hard to actually take a picture every hour!

I love Murakami! I am currently reading "Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World."
