First afternoon in the garden.
Started with 2 straightforward areas.
Firstly the fruit trees. I added to the weed- suppressant cardboard and topped up the soil in the planters. Not sure if the grape vine survived but the kiwi has
Then I tidied the strawberry planters.
#Garden2026 continues with harvesting some purple flowering broccoli.
It originally flowered in October 🤷♀️ but luckily has flowered again when it should do.
A saxifrage is flowering in the alpine pots and my wood anemone has made an appearance. I keep it in a pot so I don't dig it up when it dies back
It's a miracle!
I have been ruthless and donated a lot of the "just keep it in case" craft materials.
And yes I still have two very big Really Useful Boxes full of craft behind me BUT there used to be three and I've got my die cutter AND small loom in the cupboard!
Another week of Christmas die cutting. Today was all about trees.
Why start so early?
In November I will have 17 card making classes with around 6 people per class.
They will want to make more than one card each....
The start of #Garden2026
It's our 22nd wedding anniversary next week and the hellebore he bought me for it a few years back is back into flower 🩷
It's in a pot on our stairs so I can get to admire the owners every time I walk up
This month's craft classes are Easter themed and our second project is painting wooden cut outs
Not a bad attempt if I say so myself
Playing with die cutting again today. Trying out different card stock with new dies.
I plan to make the embellishments for this year's Christmas card making class so I need to make a start so it doesn't get to be too onerous
Then after lunch I made a Mother's Day card, luckily Mum loves dark, sludgy greens
🧶
It was time to clear out some old t-shirts. Rather than stick them in the rag bag I've turned them into yarn. 🧶
I dug out some cotton DK in my stash so I've started on a rag rug.
No pattern, just working out the increases as I go
