Lucky #13

Look mum I made my bed!
This was hard work over a couple of days; I dug out part of my garden (obviously the roses and the wisteria were already there) and made a new flower bed. My daughter helped me edge it with more rocks from elsewhere in my rock-filled garden.
I planted a bunch of seeds, because buying plants from the nursery is expensive and we have the climate here to grow from seed so it would be foolish not to.


Chelsea Flower Show, here I come......

Project #12; six years in the making


I started making this blanket for the 10th birthday of a family friend. He turned 16 three weeks ago...
Last night we drove over to his house and gave him the blanket. I'm sure it was his best gift ever. Give yourself a bonus point if you spotted my cat's tail in this photo. It's been perfect weather for a nice cosy blanket...




Onwards and upwards-at the rate I'm completing projects I'll be fine if I can just extend my lifespan to about 160 or so.
