I first started yarn art for the coming of Spring this year, after chatting with SKB, to be sure I had her blessing to decorate a part of Syston some distance from her own patch.
My themes often start from an old tune.
My second topper for my patch Roman Way, was for Easter, the tune was “In Your Easter Bonnet” from Easter Parade.
Then after Easter I heard that Cossington Secret Gardens was on again this year, after missing for a few years. It was always a lovely event, so I hoped it would be a surprise in time for the event and it stayed on the box long enough for the Jubilee celebrations the following weekend. So the flowery bonnet was put on a bigger base with the addition of a Robin, inspired by another old tune, “in an English Country Garden”
Meanwhile someone, who turns out to be a lovely lady, on a Facebook group was asking if anyone could make a topper for her beloved George post box, so I offered to gift the hat if she felt they could rock a flowery bonnet! So minus the Robin, the topper now resides on Georgie in Surrey! (photo Sedina Agama),
I am pleased that this topper has been reused and enjoyed in three different locations and helps to keep my plastic footprint in check.
For the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee I put up this one showng the Queen having tea with one of her beloved corgis.
My latest display is summer, inspired by more old tunes, “Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows” and “Here comes Summer”
