Garden Rug

 WHEW! Made it through Memorial Day weekend.

It was  busy here but, fun.

I've got lots of work to do in my flower beds.

I stopped planting last week because we had frost 2 nights in a row.

I covered up what I had planted, no damage, just a house full of flats of flowers.

I have been working on this rug, it took awhile because there is lots of detail.

It is a Notforgotten Farm Pattern from an OOP booklet.

 We got our new air conditioning installed today!!

I'm really excited, we've needed a new one for a long time.

Just in time for the 90 degree weather we are supposed to have

later this week.

I only got 1 lady slipper bloom this year. 

I love this plant, I am thankful that the plant survived the winter.

Hopefully, we will get more blooms next year.

Have a great Tuesday!

Happy Mother's Day

Frost warning!

So I'll be outside gathering up all my flowers 

bringing them inside.

I'm so glad I didn't plant any of them.

I was very tempted to though.

My son, Tommy, got me this for Mother's Day.

It is a Bottlebrush Buckeye Tree.

I love it!

I had a very nice weekend.

Lindsay and Tommy came home for the weekend,

both live in Columbus.

I did spend time with my other son, Danny.

Unfortunately at the ER.

His girlfriend was very sick,so glad she went.

She was very dehydrated.

Ashlee is lots better today.

Have a wonderful Mother's Day!

My Very First Golf Rug

Good Friday Evening!

This is a first for me, a golf rug.

I really love the way it turned out.

It took me most of the week to get it finished.

I designed this myself for Sharon who lives in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

Her husband got a hole in one on the 4th hole at Canebrake Golf Course.

I have been busy mowing, the grass is growing fast.

I've been flower shopping too.

Have a great weekend!

Spring Flowers

The weather is beautiful!! 

Last week I went to several greenhouses.

I like to go get plants for containers and plant them now.

They can easily brought inside if it gets too cold outside.

I did get a couple of clematis plants and a few different hostas.

 Friday we went to the Rural Society Antique and Garden Show 

in Mount Vernon, Ohio.

This is a stacked planter that they had for sale,

I have everything to make one, I love it!!

I bought a metal child's wheelbarrow, the 3rd one I've this spring. A rosemary topiary in a hypertufia pot and a wooden box for a fairy garden. You can see it in the picture above.  Have a happy Sunday!!

Is It Really Spring?

I think it's really spring!

It will be in the 70's today and it looks like spring.

I went to the greenhouse yesterday and I'm going tomorrow.

You have to get the stuff you really want because they sell out fast here.

I hooked this little rug, the pattern is from Madhen Primitives.

Hope everyone has a great day!
