I’ve found yet another inspirational source for posts… This one really appeals to me because I love words. The dictionary is my favourite book because so much can be learned from its pages. Having stumbled upon this idea, I decided to go through the photos I already had and was pleased to find I had a few that would suit purpose.

Life & Times 
Lovely images here. Architecture can be extremely fascinating to photograph. Skies as well. And … wondering … is the last image of your crafting … cross-stitch or embroidery? I think x-stitch? At any rate … it is lovely. All the effort and time! wow!
Thank you for your kind comments. I love the ornate buildings that surround us, generally way above street level. It never ceases to amaze me that so much work and effort has gone into producing something that, all too often, people don’t even see. And yes, you are correct on the cross stitch. Thank you for appreciating it 🙂
What blows my mind about old buildings, especially dating back to pre heavy-duty machinery and equipment is the techniques and man power used to build. The hours, time, efforts used … just mind boggling.
Nice to see crafters sharing 🙂
Oh, absolutely. I love anything that’s handmade because, being a crafter, we appreciate just what went into such things.
My other blog is my proper craft blog… http://stitchmyselfhappy.wordpress.com/ … just in case you fancied taking a look 🙂
Thanks for the link … I will stop by 🙂
