Slipping into the summer schedule....

A beautiful couple of days in London, as long as you ignore that flash-storm last night! It's now beginning to feel like summer and my mind turns to distractions such as Wimbledon, Pimms and the like. I can feel myself slipping into my summer schedule ~ up really early and into my workshop before 9am for a few solid hours of work until I break at lunchtime and settle down to a couple of hours of tennis....first the French Open, then the Stella Artois (or whatever it's now called) and in a week's time it will be Wimbledon.

On the subject of summer days, the group that I belong to ~ The End of the Rainbow ~ set a monthly challenge to come up with design(s) that reflect our feelings of summer days. One member came up with Pimms (yummy) and that got me thinking about Wimbledon and eventually onto strawberries, so my design entry is entitled "strawberries and cream" ~ pair of sterling silver earrings and pendant with red jade and cream freshwater pearls with a tiny splash of green to represent the stub of leaves in the strawberries.
