all sorts of everything

Sewing machine is out, this is the 3rd cushion almost finished

I love the fabric, very easy to work with, but it does fray.

I hope to have all 4 cushions finished by the weekend

 Hubby finally decided to sort his wardrobe, it's full of clothes from his working days. I have kept these 3 cotton shirts for Hexi's the rest have been taken to the charity shop.

 I hope to varnish my items made at our break in May, 

The last week it was way too hot to get things done.

 This corner by my water but is looking good

The Peony did not do so well this year, soon I will dig it up and make 3 plants. 

I love the bird feeder, which never worked, so I have put an alpine plant in there

 Lillies are looking good, some flowers are going over but still loads of buds. 

 Walnut sappling in my greenhouse

 Kiwi and pomegranate on my desk 

 Two books from a lady in work, 

I will start one later. 

A very mixed post this time, I have enjoyed using my sewing machine, the design on the fabric makes it very easy to match up. I don't have a pattern, I just cut the pieces and sew them back together again, I did not want to wrap the material around the foam, I wanted it to stay looking neat with the lines straight and the seams keep it all in place. The cushions are for a camper van for our neighbours.

I am hoping to do some more hand sewing of hexagons, I have loads stitched, I just need to sew more together.

The garden is still looking after itself, all I am doing at this time is watering and harvesting fruit and salad things. I am planning to redo the side garden as I stated in a previous post, plus my raise cut flower bed is not shaping up to what I wanted, so I will be sorting that, I have sown some Sweet William seeds for plants to over winter in the garden. 

With just under 5 weeks left of my working life, I am busy making leisure plans, I am tracking down the local gardening club, they help out alot in our local parks, which I think will be fun. I want to go back to doing yoga once a week.  I would also like to be a part of a craft club, but I don't think there is a local one. Once I have finished work I might test the water and see if I can start one.
