So...I'm still in bed.
Come back later.
Here I am. Better late than never I suppose.
There was no urge to get out of bed this morning. I felt blah.
But now that I'm up, and done a few jobs... I'm feeling much better.
ABOVE: Today's gathering. Our beautiful little 'Cherry Blossom Tree' has produced a really big haul of Peaches this season. Such a good little tree. For a Cherry Blossom.And we are still getting a few tomatoes, and they are just delicious.
I bloody well hate making them!
So I'm simply NOT going to. I will turn these pieces into a runner! Waste not and all that shit.
ABOVE: Lunch.
And that's me for now. I am going to finish my morning jobs, then head into the sewing room.
ABOVE: Oi! You cheeky little tart Joyce! YES we did ascertain it was a PEACH at the end of the day. (how derr of us to not actually read the label at the time)
It was a very happy accident buying a PEACH tree instead of a Cherry Blossom.
It takes forever to join all the pieces together with a tight satin stitch!
Two hours in and I'm just over half way ...
I'm now done in the sewing room for the day.
I'm off to have some lunch and then a swim.
ANON: The round end runner was incredibly easy to do! I didn't bind the edges like 'normal' either. If I'd tried to bind it, it would have been a right bitch! lol
So Stew went to the pub this evening, and I visited the kids then picked Stew up and we came home.
It's now wind down time, we'll watch some telly, I'll work on me jig saw and then it will be bedtime.
You sure they're not apricots lol😂😝.
ReplyDeleteThat would make a very cool bag. For you ? Or bex? Or a future babies?
ReplyDeleteThere would have to be a MASSIVE change of mind for there to be another grandbaby. I keep working on them!!!
DeletePretty cool cheery tree making peaches lol. I got 2 off my peach tree and 4 off Apricot.....be cheaper to buy them than waste the water lol
ReplyDeleteI like the runner too.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear you confirm the bags are too much effort. I read those directions and that is the conclusion I came to also.
ReplyDeleteThe runner is lovely, good save.
I am glad you are using your pool regularly. I got out of the habit a couple years ago. We have a neighborhood pool, open in the summer.

Love the runner, the colours are gorgeous and the kiwi makes it.
ReplyDeleteYour tomatoes and peaches look very yummy. I wish we had a fruit tree (well we do have a very sad lemon tree ... lots of green leaves but very few lemons - even though we fertilise it). I hope you enjoyed your swim.
ReplyDeleteRunner is beautiful! What's trickier to do, a pointy end or round end?
ReplyDeleteThe round end was incredibly easy.
DeleteNice haul of produce from the garden. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteLove the runner and the kiwi. Gorgeous work as usual Chris.
ReplyDeleteIt's Saturday and I'm still in bed at 10am. No need to go shopping and Noone to visit but I will get up and get onto my half finished quilt. Had another fall and slipped off the toilet!! Think it was a sugar low. Fell off me throne! Lol kj
