cushion sampler

This started out as a sampler of stitches and and I used it as the centre of a cushion for a few years. More recently it was converted to a small cushion with a 'smelly' filling. I had watched a TV program called 'Growing your own drugs' {I think} & a tip for sleepless nights was a pillow filled with hops [to make you drowsy] & lavender [to disguise the smell]. It still smells awful!!! It may be converted into something else soon!

We rented the top house during our stay in Port Leucate, France which had good views of the local area. Can't remember how we got up to the top of the tree house, must be because of the consumption of wine.

Twisted Tree

The little tree seedlings I find in my garden, I transfer to pots to keep them small and then twist their branches as they grow into knots and twists. Is it cruel?

Sculpture

I like this sculpture at Liverpool Street Station - Kindertransport Memorial.

In 1938 and 1939, nearly 10,000 unaccompanied Jewish children left Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia by train, for the freedom of Britain.
