Narcissi, St Piran’s Festival and Happiness Calendar

Happy St David’s Day to all the Welsh and those with Welsh heritage like me and my siblings. I love Daffodils in all their guises so here they are to mark the day.

Before The Ingleheart Singers started the day off with a rousing  round of some of our Cornish repertoire, a choir friend took this photo of me with Max, our lovely Town Crier, in his wonderful Story Coat that regular readers will know all about. Check here if you’d like to know more.

Here is the Happiness Calendar for March on this, the first day of Spring.

Stitchery, Old and New

There were some beautiful examples of stitchery at Trerice where we were with friends on Wednesday.  I hadn’t heard of Stumpwork before and loved this old example.

There was also a beautiful curtain where crewel work was the decoration.

The reverse appliqué circles that I made a few weeks ago (bottom two on the right) are being sewn onto the Redruth Story coat ready for Pasty Day in our town at the end of the month.
