John Keats wrote ‘Season of mist and mellow fruitfulness’. It has certainly been feeling very autumnal this week. We have been the happy recipients of lots of vegetables from friends allotments.

My days have been occupied with 2 chairs that I am re-caning. They take a while, in fact I have these chairs in my workshop for over a year. They are to go to my husbands brewery and I’ve been putting them off in favour of other jobs. Anyway in the evenings I’ve been twining this little pumpkin like basket using nutscene twine. I find it very relaxing to keep my hands busy. It helps clear my head!
