When the north wind doth blow and we shall have snow
Well the wind is blowing and there's snow in the North of the UK. It's a very cold windy day in Cornwall. Poppy has the right idea about today
She looks sad but she is actually sleeping in front of the fire and when I took the photograph she half opened her eyes.
I wish I could curl up in front of the fire but Monday morning is laundry day (: (:
I hope my frame and stand will come any day, I am so looking forward to starting VS Alphabet series.
Here is one of the first samplers I stitched, all the way back in 1999. Where do the years go?

“Love looks not with the eye, but with the mind: And therefore is wing’d Cupid painted blind”
“A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
it’s loveliness increases;
it will never pass into nothingness;
but still keep a bower quiet for us.”
it’s loveliness increases;
it will never pass into nothingness;
but still keep a bower quiet for us.”
How true. Moira's charts have given me such joy over the years and they really are things of beauty and that beauty does increase.
I think that it will be thermals for me and doggie coats for Blue and Poppy today when we go for our walk. There is a big pot of homemade chicken soup simmering in the AGA for when we get back
