March musings

 I'm quite excited about our new paving/landscaping! It all happened last week, and the guys did a great job. Now we can walk around the house without having to watch our step, and it all looks very neat. I've planted herb seedlings and sown radicchio seeds in the planter box, and DH is in the process of planting a variety of shrubby things in the low garden bed. the centre piece is a 'Pierre de Ronsard' rose given to me by a friend last Christmas. It's a lovely rose, pink, apricot, cream in various stages of flowering, and it smells divine! Looking at the studio wall, I've just had an inspiration - it's a great spot for a barn quilt! Hmm...

 On another floral note, this was block No. 12 of my Kim McLean quilt. I'm finishing about one block a week, so I have about 12 more weeks to go. But I'll have to get a move on some other sewing, to get ready for Canada. Secret projects!

Finally, we had a gorgeous big full moon this week, and I managed to capture it with my little camera. Not bad for a hand held shot I think.

  1. Wow, wonderful moon photo Donna..the paths look really good, much easier for you to get around the house. You are going great guns with the Kim McLean blocks, love the colours in the flower.
