I would love for you to join me (a retired senior)in my zany crafting adventures with quilting (waaaaay too much fabric); scrapbooking (will I ever catch up?); redwork; counted cross stitch; crossword puzzles; reading; and cooking.

JUNE FABRIC JOURNAL PAGE, et al

 
June Fabric Journal Page
Progress:

I added my hand-tea-dyed
ruffle to enclose my 
scrappy tattered heart...

[I covered muslin with torn strips]

THEN...
I began stitching the upper portion
with various little stitches; 
they seemed, as I worked, 
to represent
a sky scene:
 perhaps the Milky Way??
AND...
Further along 
after sitting on our deck
this lovely morning and
drinking my coffee...
↶↶↶↶
Stars and little 
French knots in between 
my Kantha stitching..

And....
Some French  knots are drooping
down...

I am now letting this simmer a bit to
see what I want to add next...

*********************
I had some company this morning
while stitching and sipping;)))

a quiet clover-munching friend:
Mrs. Bunny-Rabbit 
Right below our deck....
;))))
********************
My ferns are really doing well
back here filling in...
This spot is in the shade until
around 4 pm; so,
they thrive here along with
my now long-past bloom bleeding hearts...
💗💗💗💗
Just a few left...

I send a word of thanks to
my good crafting friend, Jean,
for her gift of two little
starter plants...

I think of her fondly 
every Spring.

So heart-warming...
aren't they?  
********************
FYI
for those of you who have asked
how I am faring:
I am now able to take short walks
and move about our house 
pretty much with short
sitting respites...

And

yesterday I drove myself (!!)
to our local grocery store
and did a small shopping...
Hurrah!!!!

Hugs, Julierose
