My Fitbit logged to a greater extent than than 20K steps yesterday. Apparently in that place was a lot of walking. Just my walk alongside Sue logged over 14K, in addition to hence it doesn't accept much to a greater extent than 1 time I larn home. With laundry going on, in addition to me inwards my sewing room, it doesn't accept long to rack upward a lot of stepping.
In the sewing room, I sewed the Pansy Mosaic into a finished flimsy.
I'd forgotten almost the yellowish border roughly the outside, in addition to hence it took a footling longer than expected. When the binding is sewn on, the yellowish border volition hold out simply one-half an inch, in addition to hence it looks similar a flange.
My adjacent sewing goal was to larn caught upward on the Tiny Tuesday blocks. It was belatedly inwards the day, in addition to hence I had fourth dimension to cutting the start one. This is the Spinning Star from Zana's Ninis.
It was partly sewn together earlier Mike got home, in addition to I decided to quit for the day. I'll complete this 1 upward today.
It was such a beautiful twenty-four hours yesterday, sunny in addition to warm, in addition to hence Mike in addition to I sat exterior for a footling patch earlier dinner. While nosotros were sitting there, a Painted Lady butterfly showed upward on the lilac bush. It spent quite a fleck of fourth dimension there, moving from blossom to blossom.
I imagine the Painted Ladies cause got been inwards Oregon for a patch directly inwards their migration northward, but this is the start 1 I've seen. I was hoping it would opened upward its wings a footling more, but this was the best I could do.
Also, inwards yesterday's post, I showed yous our Golden Chain tree, noting that it was simply barely getting started blooming. By yesterday afternoon, it was fully opened, in addition to looking marvelous.
But here's the affair I'm most excited almost now...the poppies from Ireland. I've counted no less than iv bloom buds on it, in addition to I suspect in that place are more.
We unleashed it from its chicken wire protective shield since the bloom buds were squashing themselves against the wire, trying to larn out.
It's in all likelihood rubber from squirrel earthworks directly anyway. This adjacent 1 is the start 1 I noticed, in addition to the light-green guard petals are starting to push clit away from the bloom inside. Can a fully-opened blossom hold out far behind?
Patience alongside poppies is difficult to find, but nosotros hold off expectantly.
Today volition hold out a busy day. I'm going to pass a footling fourth dimension alongside my slow-stitching this morning. I'll stitch the words at the bottom, but in addition to hence it volition hold out fourth dimension to accept it out of the hoop in addition to create a footling to a greater extent than of the scary fancy stitches. I'll hold out making a bullion rose within the pocket-sized heart, in addition to I'll complete off the bloom to the correct of the discussion "Stitch," using a buttonhole stitch in addition to bullion petals roughly the outer edge.
The kids are coming for dinner tomorrow, in addition to hence I'm making dessert ahead of fourth dimension today. Mike has requested a Bailey's Chocolate Chip Cheesecake. Dinner tomorrow shouldn't hold out besides much trouble. Mike is doing a prime number rib on his Traeger grill, in addition to hence I'll simply whip upward some mashed potatoes in addition to some light-green beans, in addition to we'll telephone phone it good. And since I didn't create whatsoever housework beyond laundry yesterday, I suppose I'll build clean the identify upward a little. The pots postulate watering, in addition to the plane feeders postulate filling, hence there's enough to remain busy on this sunny Saturday.
