A few months ago I got a phone call asking me if I’d take part in the flower festival at Ledsham Church….oh yes no problem. The theme’s What a Wonderful World. OK, so my brain cranked into gear and yes I thought, a globe of flowers with a little daisy chain dancing round it in mid air to the people of the world connecting with one another. Shouldn’t be too difficult….. Plenty of time to think about it.

I loved Singing in the Rain, it did just look as though the flowers were raining down the umbrella, and the colours in Sunrise…
There really were so many and they were so lovely….but I persevered with my little globe and hoped for the best and every now and again I took a look at some of the others. There was an afternoon tea called My Mother’s Baking, then there flowers showing the joys of family, this year’s royal wedding, sport and cricket, nature’s bounty, gardening.
There was a patriotic red white and blue one, and then there were the lovely trees, beautiful weeping birch trees, put together to form an archway into thechurch. A lovely idea for a wedding, such an entrance for the
bride to come through….Anyway I finished my globe. It wasn’t bad and the colours were good. See what you think. As usual I needed to look at it again. I went home and when I got back on the Sunday I liked it a lot more!
One of my favourites was done for Marie Curie, lovely pink colours in the church doorway.
Beautiful arrangements. How clever. Well done.
