I haven't been idle. Quite the opposite I guess! I just haven't had time to take pictures or blog. I have been spending a lot of time outdoors in the yard planting and slowly working towards some kind of landscaping. I have never been interested in gardening of any sort until about 2 years ago and now I am learning by trial and error. Sadly I have killed as many plants as I have grown but it is a fun learning experience.
A few crafty things that I have done lately. I made new cushions for my deck chairs.I found some wonderful indoor/outdoor fabric and sewed pillowcase type covers.I will take pictures if it stops raining. :-)
For Mother's Day my mom had a wonderful dinner at her house and bought little gift baskets for all of the ladies in attendance. I used my Silhouette to make name tags. I think there were 14 of us.
I've made a few cards but I haven't taken any pictures. I do hope to have some crafty time soon. Until then I will be enjoying the gorgeous weather whenever I can.
I hope that you are well!
Barbara
