EKKK!

Well tomorow i'll find out if ive past my higher philosophy nab, and i have another nab as well! today was great, i finished the book inheart by Cornelia Funke, it was good i loved how she had quotes from classics put into her book about loving books :) i now see the beautifulness of older books and have bought two wonderful antique looking ones:
The book is caled the cottage on the fells by Henry De Stacpoole. i think it was written in the 1920's the cover is a bit damaged but the binding is beautiful!
the other book i got in Aberdeen's barnardos bookstore (which is now cleared and is up for rent :() and is called tales, poems and sketches by Brete Harte, i think it was written in the late 1890'2 so im sure this must be an antique! the editors note page is beautifully decorated:unfortunatly the cover like the first book is damaged :( but it doesnt stop their beauty.
As my sister's friend once said "peace out brownie scout"!

Here's some sewing i've been working on:
this took me a while because of all the running stitches. this is hand embriodery done on a silk painting of orchids.

bLoG???

Ok i've decided i'll start up a blog to record my mumblings and ramblings to any of you googlers and bloggers out there :)

Hopefully i'll get something about my art work and sewing up soon :)
