It seems that life has been spent under a grey saucepan lid since last spring, so let's hope for a lovely spring and summer this year. Mr P has scrubbed the greenhouse inside and out so the sweet pea seeds I've had since the autumn might soon get sown. It will seem strange to be able to go into the garden in the evenings, and not to light the wood burner every morning.
The only problem is that two deer have taken up almost permanent residence in the garden in the last couple of weeks and they are eating everything tender and green, most disastrously all my tulips! Apparently lion poo is the best deterrent, but we'll have to be satisfied with cat poo. Maybe we could train the cats to chase deer too?
I am making some more pincushions because the Handy and Divine group of makers will have a stall at the community day at Rother College in Midhurst on Saturday 27th April (10am - 2pm).

I'm rather fond of the one with the lustrous camel!
Glad you too are now having some sunshine. We had a wonderful afternoon here yesterday but the mizzle is coming down today - it is April after all! Love the little pincushions especially the way the fabric picks up the colour of the flower in the second one. Good luck with the community day.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it nice that the sun is back? Well, nice doesn't quite hit it. It's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Love your sweet teacup pin cushions. So tiny and cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a super cute idea the teacup pin cushion are - inspired! Are they attached or just rest there?
