Home day

Today has been a relaxing day at home, some time in the garden and some time sewing, plus a bit of reading snuck in there too, I am part way through a good who dunnit book.
My assistant/supervisor and I are ready to go to the garden!

My little pukeko is disappearing into the native violet

I don't know what this is but it has an amazing flower

the smaller fig tree has fruit developing already

These plants were full of little birds, helmeted honey eaters I think.

The supervisor relaxed in the shade!!

But then came to see what I was doing

Mmmmmm...still some weeds here!!

This afternoon I have started on some pockets for a bag pattern I am going to attempt when I go on retreat next week

these left over bits could be book marks, they need to be sewn around the edges.
The Minions now have a binding, that will be my job for tonight, I can make a start.
Time for a G & T I think.
Happy sewing.

  3. Your garden looks great
    How do you find time to get everything done
    You must be a quiet achiever

  5. Your garden is looking lovely. I have that wild violet too, although mine didn't come from Mum, she always had it in her garden. Happy G&T hour!
