This week has been one of contrasts:
Colour, bright and neon and a sedate ecru!
Yarn, thick chunky wool and fine cotton!

| Sunflower Bloom |
I have finished another Patricia Kristoffersen doily
for my bedspread. It was much more
difficult than the first two. I have
started the fourth one and that is really difficult! But hey I love a challenge.
The above is a doily I have done in dk cotton from a
chart I found on Pinterest. I made it
for my table outside to lighten up a shady spot this summer. The colours are not true in this photo (it
was taken early this evening). The true
colour are those in the first photo
above.
It has been stiflingly hot this week, and my poor
flowers are being bleached by the sun.
The grass is brown, at least it has stopped growing!
However the mini agapanthus loves the heat!
The vegetable garden is thriving and this this morning’s
pickings.
This week Peggy Sue takes a star turn.
Have a great week and thank you for visiting.
Wonderful doilies. Those vegetables are a real delight, I am missing going out in the garden and picking things out for supper. Peggy Sue is gorgeous.
