Blue Sunday.

 
We are feeling kind of blue in our part of the world right now. Sad events in the Gleaners Inc. neighbourhood of Brunswick have blanketed everyone in a  dark cloud of sorrow.
 
Making these blue floral lino ducks for a lovely customer added some brightness to my week. This stunning lino was a donation and was found in the hard rubbish in Preston. HOW DID I NOT SEE IT!!!
Luckily my desire for beautiful vintage lino is well known and like minded locals will rescue it for me!
 
A few days ago my Lily turned 18. Here she is snubbing her nose at tradition and totally rockin' her school formal outfit. Channelling a Krishna goddess maybe?
It  has been a very challenging year for this young lady. Glandular fever and chronic fatigue, Year 12 stresses, loss of her friend to suicide and much sadness. I am wishing her a much happier year ahead and I will no doubt continue to bask in her strength, ballsy attitude and inner beauty xxxx
