Cutting, cleaning, nature walk.........

After finishing vacuuming the basement I pressed 12 more Australian fabrics and cut the size I need for the Hunter Star.  Then I sorted each fabric so they were all face up.  I will get them cut this morning and then return to cleaning off the tables in the basement.

I went out around 4 p.m. to take some photos and fill the bird feeders.  I walked into my neighbors' yard to take a picture of the Cannas.  They are taller than me now but no blooms yet.  Last year only 2 bloomed.

The whole row of tall hostas are blooming now with the sweet smelling flowers.







I dug up and split one hosta when I was planting my Shasta Daisies.  I didn't think it was the tall variety but the flower is the same.










I need to either give this hosta to someone or get it planted next month.

  1. Gorgeous fabrics.....and I am happy to report that I acquired some of them in my recent quest for a similar collection! But are you not bothered by cutting into a fabulous collection? Do you have a small stash of "last bits" of treasured fabrics? :)

  2. Your Australian fabrics are gorgeous, and the hunter's star will be fantastic. I know hostas get a bad rap as boring beds around trees, and for those old fashion plain green ones I'd agree. Some of them do have wonderful flowers, and hummingbirds love them.

  3. I have always been attracted to that white fabric with the black wavy design, but I have never bough any. All your Australian fabrics are gorgeous. The garden is beautiful too! I had a lot of thistle coming up in my flower bed. I just didn't have the time to get down on my hands and knees to dig it out so I hit them with some weed killer and that did the job!
