The colors for the end of summer have been so inspiring - colors of Joe Pye w**d, asters, golden rod, rag w**d, cat tail in the marsh and morning glories. Lots of work going on with eco printing, knitting and silk dying. Check my online store to see what's been happening! https://www.etsy.com/shop/MaureensFiberArts I will be posting new eco prints in a few days.

Autumn harvest 🍂 I spent the day with gathering some seasonal produce for our workshop on Saturday. We got back and unloaded the car and put it all on the table. When we stood back and looked at all the beautiful colours, we looked at each other and both said “shall we take a quick photo” at the same time. it just looked so abundant and vibrant with all the colours of autumn we couldn’t resist.
I can’t wait to play around with all of these at the weekend and style some beautiful scenes. We have got squash, corn, artichokes, medlars and apples to play with.
I’m planning what I should bake with it, of course I’m thinking a pie.
I hope that you have had a great week so far. 🍂

Down The Lanes Of August
by Edgar Albert Guest

Art by Lynne Bellchamber

DOWN the lanes of August—and the bees upon the wing,
All the world's in color now, and all the song birds sing;
Never reds will redder be, more golden be the gold,
Down the lanes of August, and the summer getting old.

Mother Nature's brushes now with paints are dripping wet,
Gorgeous is her canvas with the tints we can't forget;
Here's a yellow wheat field—purple asters there,
Riotous the colors that she's splashing everywhere.

Red the cheeks of apples and pink the peaches' bloom,
Redolent the breezes with the sweetness of perfume;
Everything is beauty crowned by skies of clearest blue,
Mother Earth is at her best once more for me and you.

Down the lanes of August with her blossoms at our feet,
Rich with gold and scarlet, dripping wet with honey sweet.
Rich or poor, no matter, here are splendors spread
Down the lanes of August, for all who wish to tread.
