Flower Festival

 My annual visit to Crowfield Church on their Flower Festival weekend, they also have a second-hand book stall. But this year, although there were dozens of books on the tables, I only picked up these two.



The gazebo on the left has hundreds of books while on the right they have dozens of jigsaw puzzles and a few children's books




The theme of the Flower Festival was 'Time' and there were some lovely arrangements and clever ideas.

'Time Rolls On'

"Time is like a toilet roll, the nearer you get to the end, the faster it goes"


                                                    The white rabbit in Wonderland
"I'm Late"



Time and Tide

"Time and Tide wait for no one"


Harvest Time


(I was interested to see the local produced sheep's cheese on this display, made not far from home for the last couple of years but first time I'd heard about it. I looked up the stockists and hope to buy some  soon for a cheese taste test)


'Past Present and Future'

"Yesterday is the past, Tomorrow is the future, but Today is a gift which is why it is called 'The Present'.



A stitch in time was a large display by the local craft club



'Once in a Blue Moon'



These were just a few of the lovely arrangements. I say it every year but there are some very talented people around.

Back Soon

  4. Lovely photos. I enjoy a good flower festival too. The flower arrangements at our local agricultural show this year were fabulous as always, far beyond my meagre ability.

    1. I knew I'd read a Kashmir Shawl by her several years ago but had forgotten to look for more. Hope this is readable
