morning ladies 
The sun's out! And the days are getting longer, daylight saving can't be that far away.
lol popeye, no, I didn't get around to unpicking the sparklers. Every time I look at it, I get the giggles lol. I have been looking through my favourite embroidery book trying to think of another stitch I could use that would look better. I was thinking the Turkey Rug stitch. Needle felting also looks like a good option, but I would need to buy the special needles and some wool. I might pop into Spotlight when out and about today and have a look. I am very happy with what I have done on the tail though.
No sign of the fencers but they were starting a new job yesterday and the weather was horrendous at times. I need to phone our neighbour and tell him there is a pile of concrete fill ready for him so he can bring the tractor and it can be taken away. Then I can start the next 'round'. In amongst MrK's stash of old fence posts I found the perfect post I can use to go behind a seat to keep the pebbles under the seat in place. MrK is happy to see his old posts being used. Our friend, the fencer, just shook his head when he saw the posts I had dug in last year to support the dahlias lol. OK, so I'm no fencer lol but they will do the trick. So, there is still no point in buying in more soil for the 'new' garden I started last summer or planting new plants just yet. It seems one job just leads to another bigger one at the moment.
Time to sort the washing out, the machine has finished.
happy crafting
