Simply Neutrals #9

Hello dear friends,

Here is....

Simply Neutrals Tuesday #9!!

Gosh, number 9 already...

Thank you sweet friends for linking up so faithfully to the party and for visiting each other and leaving comments! It's really your sharing and mingling that makes the party being such a delightful gathering each week. So thank you so much!

I made a second page for my fabric book.

The theme of my book is Mother and Child.

I've loved this sketch of Virgin and Child by Giuseppe Cades (of the late 1700s) for a long time now and had pinned it to my pinterest board of religious images ages ago. To use in a fabric book or collage one day.

If you'd like to use the sketch yourself as well,

then you can find it HERE.

I thought it suited the neutral tones and theme of this book so beautifully.

So finally I'm using this beloved image!

I love how this book is coming together. I'm grateful dear Suzy is so generous to share her talent with us and helps us creating our own fabric books through her wonderful workshop Peaceful and Pondering. I know my book resembles a bit the art style of Suzy, but I trust that in time I will find my own voice.

I'm linking my book page to Roses of Inspiration

On to this week's party!

Features of last week's party

IF YOU LIKE TO PIN SOME OF THESE FEATURED PHOTOS

THEN PLEASE DO SO FROM THE ORIGINAL BLOGS

Everyone has made a great effort in creating, photographing and writing blog posts

and I want all credit to go to the owners of these photos.

So please pin these photos from their blogs and not mine.

First feature is a stunning sacred heart by Dorthe of Den Lille Lade.

Which I thought was so fitting to the theme of my fabric book!

And I love the quote on the heart:

"Let your heart speak

to others hearts"

Which brings me to the heart in one of the photos in the beautiful photo collage

by Valerie-Jael of Bastelmania

I love this collage! It brings together several of my all time favourites:

neutrals (of course)

birds

and their feathers

collecting stones

photographing rusty bits

spending peaceful time at the beach

autumn with the long shadows

hearts, found or made

Which brings me to another of my all time favourites:

lace!!

Oh, and flowers too!!

This gorgeous shabby bag made out of beautiful laces and adorned

with a gorgeous and sweet flower was created by

Nancy of Sugar Lump Studios.
