Unrest in the forest

The summer holidays from school have come and gone so quickly – we went back to work full time yesterday, the year 7 students started today and from tomorrow it’s 1000 kids every day until October half-term. But there was time for one last summer weekend. Wiggling in the Woods.

It’s a girly scrapbook weekend with friends in a forest-ish field with oversized insects, sleeping policemen and a gorgeous little cafe. Good times. And productive ones—usually there is more chat at crops than making stuff, but we managed to do both. I started working on my Iceland photos and I’m loving the freedom of a full album just for us. I hadn’t done a double page spread in at least a year, so I felt like I was learning how to walk again, but I managed 4 double pagers and a single one before the weekend was out—and I didn’t even arrive until a day late. A brilliant way to end the summer and a huge public thank you to Janice, who just excels at putting on something that is a perfect fit to our crowd.

I just love making stuff right now. I’m somehow ended up in a really good place, just this minute. Divine.
