Flora

I finished this crochet doll a few days ago-she was just waiting for her hair and clothes really. She is very cuddly and I love the way she has poseable legs. I have not got a name for her yet, maybe Flora, as she is accompanied by lots of flowers. I love the day lily with the grass, and the dog daisies are at their best now. The blue and rust coloured flowers were bought at the end of the day in Bromley market. They are a huge bunch and were £2! The men on the stall had loads of stock left and were selling it off ridiculously cheaply and doing a very brisk trade. I have never had such a large bunch!

Your work is astonishingly cool. It seems that no matter what you do, yarn, wool, paint, sticks stones, dirt- it's all good! Really Love Flora, she looks so great with the rust colour of the flowers for two quid...She looks very pleased that you bought them for her.
I miss London every waking moment, everything here pales. And I tend to forget how big this country is and how long it takes to get anywhere. Sunshine today and yesterday making it less depressing to be home...a little bit.
