Some pics of my block one of Down in the Garden which is ready to be sewn up. Too much socialising has gotten in the way of some one on one time with my sewing machine.
I am going to start block 2 next month.
Firstly the wonderful pattern that I won on Michelle Ridgeway's blog arrived on Friday. I quickly traced one up to take to Craft group on Saturday. I will enjoy working on these in between my Down in the garden stitcheries. Michelle also sent a lovely plum pudding and gingerbread button as a surprise. They are so cute- Thanks!!
I have a pic of my Park Avenue hexies which I have started sewing together too. I am almost ready to sew the third row on. I have also adopted a flower garden top from Nicki that I am busting to get finished. It will be on my 'eager to do' list. I will show pics soon.
I saw this in a magazine. Crocheted Flower garden! How cute!
These gorgeous brooches are made by Julie at www.meandmystitches.com
I came across them while blog surfing and they are just adorable. I had to get a couple of them

Your little brooches are lovely. The tiny pieces look cute. I loved all your Maisie pictures. She was a very cute little kitten too:)
ReplyDeleteI also like your Down in the Garden block. The vine of flowers really looks beautiful and I like the names on the herbs. All your things look great.
So many beautiful things to look at! Each time I see your hexies, I think I have to start myself. One day ..... :-)
