FNwF and into July


After very hot June, July is so much more pleasant. 
Cooler, with the occasional (very welcome) rain.
It is so much easier to look after the garden, it is flourishing now,
not just surviving.


Small lavender harvest from our front garden
(little earlier then usually, probably due to the hot June).





On Friday I joined others for FNwF, first time in a while.
Thank you Cheryll for getting us together again.

As I was watching tennis on TV, I didn't want to get involved in anything which needed too much concentration, 
so I decided to start working on my new crewel embroidery kit.


 Earlier in the week I got around (at last) to choosing fabric for the final border of 
the Butterfly's Ball quilt, and after trying various options, I settled on this pretty pink.
I have enough of this fabric for the backing as well, 
so that's sorted.


That's all for today; I leave you with the view from my kitchen door.
