Late afternoon sun, shining on the Cosmos... Their greenery looks so wispy and soft... You can almost see a faerie or two, fluttering among the wisps...
Pictures like these (in 'Romantic Homes' magazine) make we want to get another sewing machine... Many years ago, I had one. And had fun, making Jiffy Patterns, etc.
Then, about 3 years ago, I had use of one, which we gave to a Granddaughter. For awhile. I did (very little) pillow covering sewing. Perhaps it's time to get my own, again...
My-always-worry.... Will I use it, after I get it? I tend to be like a moth... Seeing this pretty-shiny-new-project... And that pretty-shiny-new-project... Flying around it and sampling it... Then, leaving it. -sigh-
Love the whimsy of these chairs, in our new (independent) book store in town. Love them! Had to take a pic of them, as well as sit in them. Love them!!!
Reading! That's one "love" which I don't abandon. But, being older, I use our Library System for most reading. At this time of life, it's "get-rid-of-extra-things-time". Not "time-to-bring-more-things-into-our-home".
Another "photo-which-says-Summer"! :-) The softness of it. The quiet of Summer afternoons. The gentle warmth and the hum of bees and flying insects. The lushness of it.

I'm not much of a sewer, but I got an $89 machine at Walmart and am happy with it for pillows and such. It's not that much of a commitment at that price.
Lovely photos that all say summer in a beautiful way
You're so right. It is very lush!! I love cosmos and always forget to plant them until I see them in others' gardens.Mags like that also call to me and I have a new sewing machine that I bought....full of good ideas...and haven't taken out of the box. There always seems something so much more important to do....like lie out in the sunlounge and dream as I read Romantic homes...or something similar! What ever you're doing...enjoy it! Joan
Love Romantic Homes magazine and seeing your garden.
One day you really must have someone make you a proper cup of tea. It is so different from just having a cups of Lipton's black teabag dipped in the cup. Before I started exploring tea I wasn't sure I liked tea, but I liked all the tea party food. Thanks for visiting me today.
