fair enough if you thought id given up on the hand stitching, believe me i was tempted a few times towards the start when the task ahead of me seemed more than a little daunting.
once i got far enough into and it felt possible that it might all come together i decided once again that i love hand stitching!
ive finished all the pinwheel blocks and its now coming together a lot quicker than i expected.
look forward to see pictures of the finished quilt soon!!
heres my little zen spot, nastursiums are climbing like crazy and im hoping for flowers soon as there my favourite part to eat. benny loves the nastursiums as weal, his nan used to feed them to him when he was a boy so they bring back fond memories. were eating lots of delicious peas. the little boy i look after is obsessed with them too
my veggie patch is going so great. ive been realy enjoying it lately. nothing like first bits of yummy produce to get you motivated to plant more!! gardening is kind of like exercise to me, when i get out of the habbit ive got to force my self get off my bum and get out their a few times and then im hooked and you couldnt keep me away if you tried
our beautiful grass is looking oh so lush and almost ready for picnic blankets. yes im still over excited about the grass, i guess thats what a few months of grasslessness does to a person!
the chickens have a nice clean home as of today. i cant get over how little their home smells. when i got them i though id be cleaning their home all the time, i was sure id heard that chickens stunk. ive seriously only cleaned their home once prior to today in the aprox 7months weve been here and i only did to get manure for the garden and compost.
Oh Karen that quilt is divine! Can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteI've heard they smell too, but I think cos you're are allowed to run free(ish) there isn't as much build up.
ReplyDeleteThat quilt looks fantastic, but not as cool as your lawn. I'm also pretty excited whenever I go out the back door and see our lush postage-stamp of grass :)
