sharing the sun
2009
The leaves are tumbling from the frangipani tree – each day we see a little more of our neighbours – and yet it is so warm – that’s right, I’m talking sleeveless shirt with the fan blowing right on me.
Yep, the weather here is still so summery, the American girls are taking a kayaking holiday!
[ Can I just say how much I ADORE my dear child playing with her friend Sacha - they have been playing - really playing - lego, Sylvanian Families, Playmobil, American Girls - non-stop since lunchtime yesterday. I am a HUGE supporter of playing - there is just not enough! I hope my dear little girls play for many years more ]
So I’ve decided to bundle up some of this summery sunshine and send it off to a dear friend who must be well and truly over what her cooler, snowy climes are delivering.
Especially some cheerful pillowcases – surely when you lay your head on these you’ll be rewarded with dreams of spring flowers and soft breezes :-).
I love a crisp edge. This is a variation on my standard pillowcase – instead of simply having the contrasting band sewn flat onto the pillowcase body, I’ve folded it in half and only sewn it in 1/4 inch.
And have I ever mentioned that I am an ardent lover of white cotton rick-rack? I have, haven’t I. Oh my, it makes me swoon!
Tomorrow I need to fill an apron with balminess and then off it will go, spreading the warmth of Kangaroo Point – and hopefully leaving us a wee bit cooler!

I haven’t thought about it, but you are right, that white ric-rac looks so charming and old worlde – crisp and fresh, too! Love the pretty fabrics and I have my little twin grandchildren playine around me at the moment – we are blessed!
Hugs – Lurline?
I was so thrilled yesterday when someone wanted 20 yards of white ric-rac! We are in the up and down spell of spring–75 F yesterday and 50 F today with two days of chilly rain coming I will waft it in your direction. But I noticed the spring flowers on my walk this morning…I saw a lot of yellow.
We had -8 C degrees last night. They say this cool period will last about two weeks, so spring has stopped for awhile and there is so much snow around! Could you send some sunshine here, please! I remember that frangipani is so lovely, when blooming. It is so good for my soul to see children playing! I am so happy to see my almost 13 years old watching children´s programs in tv.
I love playing too! I used to play with Playmobile and Legos for days on end. I still feel like I could set things up and have a grand old time if I got them out today!
Lovely pillowcase details, Lily. White ric-rac is the cheeriest of trims! My boys are 17 and 21 but still pull out the Legos, Playmobil and toy soldiers from time to time. I love hearing that distinctive plastic clinking sound that tells me they are reinacting some Civil War battle or other. My only regret at being the mother of two sons was having no excuse to collect American Girl stuff.
