morning ladies Another hot, sticky, day ahead of us today. Yesterday was too hot even to stitch, my hands kept getting sweaty so I gave up for the day.
oh_hunihuni, I like your idea of rescuing the plants from the compost bin. Seems silly to throw them out so early. My sister lives in a retirement village and there is a long list of names for the use of the community gardens. They only get to use them for a year then have to let someone else have a turn.
I finished the concrete edging yesterday morning and planted the dahlias. While pottering about, I weeded a bit as well.
Now for the concrete to be taken away so I can work on the fill underneath it all. MrK suggested I redo an edging around another part of the garden to 'smooth it all out'. Funny how he suggests I do it and not him.
Today is housework and if it's not too hot, will work on my tui again. I think I'll have to unpick a kowhai flower as it just doesn't look right. The shape is all out of kilter. Oh well, it is what it is.
Happy crafting
