September, squirrels and sunshine


After a how-you-put-it-politely bad summer August and September have been such a joy. Sunny, bright days, almost hot at the times, and colors changing from pretty greens to deeper, richer shades. Days are getting shorter and night are very dark already, but this all has happened in sort of slow, soft pace, and I am all happy with it. Welcome autumn!


Nature's beautiful colors and all things autumnal have been inspiring me lately. I have made a few custom pieces but all the other times I have been rolling little woolen balls and making leaves, birdies and acorns for...


 ...Happy autumn-wreaths! Birds, flowers, leaves, acorns and...


... a happy little squirrel too!




Happy September days to you all!

Yours,
Mia

P.S. Oh yes, that is me lurking in the window behind the squirrel-wreath with camera *wave*

Hello dear Jane,

Thank you - and you are so right, I am feeling quite happy and cheerful, sun shines and autumn is showing its prettiest sides! And oh... just a little while until C, I think I can mention that here now that V is on holidays ;)

Have a lovely week, dear friend, sunshine from here and kisses to Billy!

Yours,
Mia

Hello Lucia,

Thank you for your comment! It seems strange (and makes me just a bit envy) that you are having spring now, I would LOVE to change... But our spring will get here eventually (fingers crossed for a long, warm and happy autumn first, and then mild&short winter)!

Wishing you beautiful September-days!

Yours,
Mia

Aivan ihana kranssi! Kestääkin kauemmin kuin kukkakranssit. Sinulla on paljon mielettömän ihania huovutustuotteita. Omat hahtuvat jäivät kassiin, ei oikein ollut minun laji.

Mia said...

Hei Marle,

Kiitos kauniista kommentistasi! Huovutus iski minulle eka kokeilusta :) ja sillä tiellä ollaan, mutta eihän kaikkien tarvia kaikesta tykätä, voi ihastella toisten tekemisiä? Eikä kaikkea tarvia osatakaan, itse en tiedä kumpi pää virkkuukoukusta on se josta pidetään kiinni ;) vaikka ihastelen aina virkattuja peittoja ja haaveilen virkatuista lumihiutaleista ikkunaan...

Mukavia syyspäiviä sinulle, täällä vietellään syyslomaviikkoa!

This time of the year...

Usually around this time, when children go back to school, and you can just about to smell the autumn, I start to dig deeper in my fabric...
