Bluebells and garden success....

I have now finished my bluebell wood picture and thought I would do a show and tell.




...it includes dumfing, machine and hand embroidery.  I'm rather pleased with it cos it's been a while since Twiglet and I got creative.  I'm hoping this is the first of more to come.





'Lettuce spray'  :-)
I have to say a few prayers might have been said but I never spray my lettuces  :-)





'Beany success'
I thought I would start the kidney beans off in pots in the greenhouse and wow what success.  I think every little bean is now growing so will let them grow just a little before they are planted out in the garden......Twiglet has a patch all ready dug over for them to go into  :-)


Thanks for all your lovely comments yesterday.  I feel I have soooooo many really good friends out there that I have yet to meet.  You are all such a caring and thoughtful lot.

Love the bluebells - really cheerred me up. Have had a pretty grim april what with one thing and another so haven't blogged for a while . Hope to get back to it soon but your blog yesterday and today made me feel a bit brighter.

Ooh you put me to shame with all your hard work. All I've done is a few baskets and mowed the lawn. Can I come for a salad lunch with you Jo and Tina and taste the goodies when they're grown? Thanks for leaving a comment sorry it wasn't a new post.Working on that and will publish soon. Love Karen

The bluebells picture is awesome. I planted lettuce and peas directly into the garden and it rained so hard the lettuce seed washed away and the peas are on top of the ground. I have tomatoes that look beat to death. Weather is weird this time of year in Oklahoma. Sorry I am late getting around this week but I haven't felt well! Thanks for sharing. Vickie #36
