Thursday, September 13th, 2007This year for the first time in a very long time I didn’t make my own personalised fits-me-just-right diary. I bought one. For the pictures.
There is a photo of an embroidery or quilting project on half of every double page spread, which has served both to inspire and to add a little beauty to my every-day-life.
On the other page at the bottom is a wee quote. Here’s a sampling and *here* is the link to our own page of quotable quotes happened upon in our travels.
Don’t be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps. David Lloyd George
Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans: it’s lovely to be silly at the right moment. Horace
Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome. Dr Samuel Johnson
If you enjoy what you are doing you can always find time for whatever you want to do. W.G.P.
Budget: a mathematical confirmation of your suspicions.
(and here are links to the how can you afford it? page and the prices page and the sponsors pag – coz that’s all about budget!)
not that we’re counting

what if?
Monday, September 10th, 2007

BORING BOOKS (a scandalous suggestion!)
Friday, September 7th, 2007
Books may not be boring, but the titles of my online bookshelves are certainly lacking in the inspiration stakes. All of my blogs have bookshelves, and not one of them bears an interesting title.
There's Garden Reads on Up ... [Continue reading this entry]
dash for cash or crash with hash….is there more to life?
Thursday, September 6th, 2007
