Yesterday my pheasant showed us her 14 fluffy chicks, and she is now roaming our garden which is quite overgrown here and there, an absolute delight to witness this.
They must have hatched a short while ago yesterday, I could pick some of them up to help them along on our steps and walls because they were very wobbly on their little feet, today they run around like professionals.
A couple of weeks ago Michele from USA send me this tiny beekeep pin, it is so tiny and cute, thank you so much Michele xoxo.
Some years ago I attended a retreat with the Sampler Guild, and we made this Book of Days designed by Katie Trendell, It was a pleasure to stitch but quite complicated to finish it. Katie gave us a special day for finishing this at a member's house.
Tom Fool's tree is situated in the Muncaster Castle grounds, where the retreat was held, and Katie based her design on the tree.
I keep my treasures from friends in here, it has quite a few pages.
The back which has a pocket under the flap for a notebook or secrets!.
Stacy Nash for Lin, a belated birthday present.

The chicks are delightful, but wouldn't last two minutes here I'm afraid, the Sparrowhawk has been taking my Goldfinches again. Love the little beehive pinkeep, but I love bees in any shape or form. Also love the Stacy Nash cushion you have made.
Hoi Bertie, schattig je kleine souveniertjes.En de baby fazantjes....
Fijne zondag

Your Book of Days is lovely! Some lovely little treasures inside too. A beautiful finish on the Stasy Nash too.
Really enjoyed seeing the pictures of your pheasant chicks.
(Thanks for the suggestion about Selkie. I've noted it down and will have to look into ordering some.)
Schattig, die mini fazantjes en een erg leuk "boekje" om je mooie bedeltjes te bewaren.
What a wonderful post, Bertie! The baby pheasants are so sweet and I'll bet so much more fun to watch in person!
Love the bee pinyou received - how tiny and wonderful.
Your book of days is fabulous and what a great way to keep your treasures safe!
Have a wonderful week!
What adorable little pheasant babies! I'm still a bit amazed when I see a pheasant in the 'wild' along our road.
I love the pin keep that you received--it is so dainty! What a neat book of days you've done, the tree is fabulous.
