left blooming all alone;
All her lovely companions
are faded and gone."
Thomas Moore
the last of the summer blooms--
fading more every day~
in the sunlight,
on this last warm day--
their colors are still lovely
pinks, reds, purples,
vibrant colors in nature's beautiful hues~
fragile stems reaching
for the warmth of the sun,
not knowing that
tonight comes the frost~
introducing
my latest knitted wrap collection
"Blooms"
trailing vines
covered with beaded flowers
in a variety of textures and fabrics
exquisite blooms,
each one unique and beautiful~
created from vintage fabrics,lace,crochet pieces, ribbons
tiny beads
sewn in place to accent
every bloom
they trail across a beautifully knitted wrap~
a remembrance of the last
blooms of summer
knitted from a variety of soft and warm
acrylic threads
~
surround yourself with exquisitely
soft luxury
and beautiful blooms
scattered here and there~
tiny pearl like beads are clustered
to form delicate,tender
blooms
the wrap measurements are
78" length
24 inches wide
~
the wrap can also be worn as a
beautiful
chunky scarf
tiny knitted leaves,
also intricately beaded,
are blooming on the vines~
this beautiful wrap is the first
in my new "Blooms" design~

over the next few months there are more to come
in this series

Do you have any plans for the winter?Do you want to travel with me? The Gardener and I recently returned from a 3 week trip to Canada where we drove the entire Gaspe peninsula. There are no words to describe the beauty that we experienced. Truly, it was the trip of a lifetime~
4000 photos later....
Starting in January, travel with us as I take you all along on this photographic journey to a place that National Geographic has described as the "third most beautiful drive in the world". We will start in beautiful Quebec City and then journey eastward, along the St. Lawrence river and then later, along the coastline of the beautiful Chaleur Bay(known as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.) Scenic vistas, lighthouses, national parks,.... I will share the entire journey with you all.
xoxo,
