Happy Home Times

Hello to you.

Its been a changeable week here in Wales weather wise.

When the sun has occasionally shone I've been out in the garden.

We are now in my favourite months of year when everything bursts into colour and is fresh and new.

Hope you enjoy the photos from my garden this week...

Tulip Angelique such a pretty blousy variety. 

Wall flowers with that wonderful scent, I wish I could bottle it.

Teeny tiny salad seedlings.

Allium waiting to pop cant wait to see it.

I loved the contrast of the copper beech and the green beech against the blue sky.

Lilac beginning to open.

Honey bee visiting.

The blue bells are in full swing down the banks in the garden.

White bells and skimmia. 

Delicate fennel.

 

In doors......

 some more flower love, pretty pink and cream roses.

My hootie owl.

I've been busy sewing more wares for the shop I volunteer at. This is a cushion topped off with vintage coat buttons.

The shop wares are mounting up.

 

Finally meet kitty grey eye inspired and helped by the lovely Joy. You will see a better version on her blog here 

Thank you Joy for some very long distance learning!

 

Hope your all having a lovely week what ever your doing.

Finished!

Yay the stripy blanket is now complete!

It's been claimed already by my beautiful adopted kitty.

I think he is a beautiful boy.

He's buried himself under the blanket and settled down for a cosy sleep.

So I finally ran out of yarn....

I think it's perfect kitty size and fits nicely on his favourite sleeping spot protecting the sofa from grey fluffy hairs! when he's not underneath it....

I did take it off him for a while to photograph it outside in the sunshine.

I've left the loose ends on because I liked them! I think they added a little more detail to the blanket.

Rolled up and ready to go back inside for my grey furry friend.

Do you think I'm a bit too soft on him?.......don't answer that, I know I am.
