Mine unfortunately didn't survive this winter so am glad to see yours. <br />Your sepia drawing of the violets is beautiful. Certain your friend will prize your art on those wonderful cushions. Thank you for sharing your May 's special moments.

I always look forward to your posts, the combination of your nature finds and your beautiful drawings is every thing I love.

And seeing your work and your collections - the blues of May, indeed! - is a special treat. Your creativity and love of natural things shows in everything you do. (I do hope the person using your blog posts and photos stops - so many people think if it's on the internet, it's fair game for them to use, and I don't think they all are ignorant of the laws but just ignore them.) Have a wonderful June - seems like June will be full of reds from the poppies to...whatever comes your way.RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977564569973321926.post-38955231216663798682015-06-04T05:18:57.056+01:002015-06-04T05:18:57.056+01:00Bonjour chère amie,

Une fleur qu'on pense fragile mais qui est très résistante compte tenu de sa frêle légèreté...<br /><br />Tous vos dessins sont tellement magnifiques. J'aime votre souci du détail.<br />Le temps file si vite que nous voici déjà en juin !<br />Je vous souhaite de profiter au mieux des belles journées qui s'annoncent.<br /><br />Gros bisous ☼martinealisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055152925986659065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977564569973321926.post-25494962445055860622015-06-03T15:07:45.274+01:002015-06-03T15:07:45.274+01:00Good morning Milly. I've missed seeing posts ...Good morning Milly. I've missed seeing posts from you, and so it was a particularly sweet treat to find this one, full of the beauty of May.<br /><br />I completely agree with you about alwys being able to recognize my own work, and find it maddening that anyone would steal your artwork for their own purposes. Very bad news.<br /><br />Now...back to nature. Every one of your phtographs tells a story, with a large variety of colors, all beautiful. When I saw the field of fritilaries, I wanted to let you know I've recently read Esther Freud's Mr Mac and Me, which contains many wonderfully imagined descriptions of C M Mackintosh observing, drawing and painting nature. I think you'd enjoy the book.<br /><br />You've reminded me again of the potential of linoprinting on fabric. Note to self: acquire some soft lino and ink. Think I have other equiptment around here somewhere. Your blue egg is so lovely.<br /><br />I would also have stopped work to have a good look at the steam engine. Wow!<br /><br />Our very dry month of May finished up with lots of rain, that continued into June and really cooled the city down. Sweater weather has returned for a while.<br /><br />Milly, this post was a joy to see! xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977564569973321926.post-45881113462664160702015-06-02T16:37:21.971+01:002015-06-02T16:37:21.971+01:00Beautiful work.

How happy your friend must have been to receive the two pillows you made from your own fabric design! (Priceless!) Loved the idea of the hand carved eggs you printed for a tea towel. You are right about using things you have made with your own hands. It's a pleasure not brought by something bought in a store. Spring is finally here as well, bringing the joy of birds returned from warmer climes, and my poppies (and more) are beginning to share their fleeting beauty with us. Watching each type of bloom first open, then fade--such a bitter-sweet feeling, as I know it only brings us closer to the next winter, which I do truly love as well, but it's only Spring yet, and memories of ice and snow have not dimmed yetfor me. A side note-- It does make me a little sad to see that some people do not honor your request regarding your creatice images from your blog. It's hard to imagine a person being so rude.(but then, I've been accused of being a "polyanna". :-) Hugs from across the pond-Anita.
