Hi, I’m Eli, thanks for calling at my Flutterby Patch. I'm a 'busy bee' who loves sewing, knitting, crafting, gardening and generally pottering around my home. Books are an essential part of my life and my crafting collection is ever expanding. I have a passion for vintage and would collect anything and everything if I had more space.

Little contemplations
A flower cannot blossom without sunshine nor a garden without love.
Angels speak to out hearts when we are asleep.
The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God's heart in a garden,
Than anywhere else on earth.
Small skill is gained by those who cling to ease. The hardy sailor hails from stormy seas
If you want the best seat in the house move the cat
There are perhaps no days in our childhood we live so fully as those we spend with a favourite book.
