Poppy Patchwork


My little bit of this big World

Colour through grey

I am pleased with these colours
 I am using each colour for the second time
 Folded into quarters
This is the only crafting I am doing, I have loads of sewing ready to stitch, a pair of socks over half way and I've almost finished my cross stitching. But I am on empty when it comes to crafting, well on most things.
I do have loads of joy in my life, my supportive and loving husband, wonderful grandsons, and daughters. But like the weather there is cloud everywhere, life is grey. I have never felt so low, things around us this summer have weighed heavy on me, I am a strong woman, so I have never felt this before, I can see where I need to get to.
The garden is being done, simply because if I don't sort things before the cold weather, I will lose plants and not have any colour early next year.
I am out into the greenhouse to finish my project at the back, at least this brings a smile. B&Q had the slate and stones I wanted, plus some primroses and cyclamen both reduced, if it ever stops raining I can do my pots. I have added the cost to my list.

  1. So sorry you're feeling this way, Marlene, I hope you manage to pick up soon. It's awful, isn't it, I know the feeling only too well. The blanket colours are wonderful, so lovely and bright.

  2. I'm sorry to hear you're feeling down at the moment, I think most of us get like this sometimes. The only consolation is that it does pass. Your blanket is looking lovely, such pretty colours.

  3. I hope those feelings pass quickly. I completely understand how you feel. It's hard to find motivation or enthusiasm about anything. Try a multivitamin in case you're a bit short of something.

  4. I hope positivity returns for you soon, Marlene. It's good that you are crocheting some colour into your life! I felt quite flat all through Winter and I ended up planting pots of petunias just for that bright colour I was missing. MegXx
