Tillie Tinkham has fashioned a sweet pea frock and hat for Miss April Thistledown.

On this lovely June morning, Violet and Diane were out walking about their garden, when they came upon little April.

 

April had plucked a tiny sweet pea, some lavender and fern to give to Violet. Violet is delighted!

 

Diane also gathered some sweet peas and lavender, which along with the smaller bouquet, they brought into
Emily & Ethlyn's Potions and Perfumery.
E. & E.'s P. & P. is the corgyn's pretend apothecary, which they run in Diane's old kitchen.
