The Canterbury Bell Fairy
Wednesday, August 08, 2012 Posted In 2012 finishes Edit This 0 Comments »
Bells that ring from ancient towers-
Canterbury Bells-
Give their name to summer flowers-
Canterbury Bells!
Do the flower-fairies, playing,
Know what those great bells are saying?
Fairy, in your purple hat,
Little fairy, tell us that!
"Naught I know of bells in towers-
Canterbury Bells!
Mine are pink or purple flowers-
Canterbury Bells!
When I set them all a-swaying,
Something, too, my bells are saying,
Can't you hear them --ding-dong-ding--
Calling fairy-folk to sing?
As you probably know I love the Flower Fairies. Have now decided to make a quilt of them all when I have enough, so will start collecting.
Finished 7th August 2012

Well, I have finally had another finish. They seem to be few and far between this year, but I am doing just as much stitching - I just seem to be into doing bigger pieces atm, not all the little ones in between that I usually do. I stitched this for some friends that are having a baby girl any day now. I remember Sarah Kay designs from when I was a kid and just adore them. I stitched it on Blueberry hand dyed Jobelan (does look quite grey on the pic, but is very pretty lilac with pink bits irl) - 28 count and will probably frame it. Thanks for looking.

This is a kit from RTO based on a painting by Brent Heighton. I was ill a lot in the winter of 2012, so this was all I had the energy to do, so finished it in no time.
