FINISHED!!!

After 7 years I have finally finished my Vintage Nine Patch quilt. It is wool applique' on cotton. Lots of work stitching on this one. I had my friend hand quilt it for me and she did a gorgeous job. I love how this quilt turned out. It was definitely worth the wait.

MORE BLOOMS IN THE GARDENS

My Rose of Sharon has bloomed this week. I just love these big blooms. The Calendula is just about to burst open and my Brown Eyed Susans are out in full force. Love getting out early and watering every morning and seeing how all the blooms are coming.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Blessings,

COOKIES

I was baking cookies before the crack of Dawn this morning. Baked a few for home and a tin for my Co-workers. A batch of peanut butter cookies and a batch of chocolate chip/oatmeal/walnut cookies.
My husband gave me the thumbs up. Hope you are all having a great day. We got a little rain overnight which my gardens really appreciated.
Stay cool everyone during these days.

MORE BLOOMS IN THE GARDEN

Good morning my friends. I took a few pictures this morning of the recent happenings in my gardens. My perennial sunflowers are blooming and the squash is starting to form. Looks like it is going to be a good crop, more blooms are coming. The weather is a little cooler today, so much better for sleeping and working in the gardens.
Have a great day everyone.
Blessings

MY GARDEN

My husband took this aerial photo this morning of my vegetable garden. It sure is growing. The heat sure is helping it out. We had lettuce from the garden for lunch and beets will be for dinner with pork chops. Hopefully everyone is staying cool in this heat wave.

SUNDAY MORNING GARDEN STILLS

Good morning everyone. I hope my friends in the USA had a great 4th of July holiday. It's pretty hot here in southern Ontario, but I have been outside before 6 am every morning tending to my gardens for 3 to 4 hours each day. I love it and it is so rewarding watching the plants start to bloom.
I took a few pictures this morning of the gardens to share with you.
Blessings
~Janet
