A beautiful day...............

It was a nice day to work outside yesterday.  First I mowed the grass until my battery in the mower died.  I think I will need to replace batteries this year.  I buy 2 batteries and my son wires them together and they go into the case that fits the mower.  It is less expensive than buying the battery from a dealer and since there is no dealer close to me this works best.

Then I planted 2 of the pots for my porch.  The one on the table was done a couple days ago.

Here is a better shot of the one on the table, all pansies.

As long as I was already dirty and sweaty I decided to plant the tomato plants too.  I put just 4 plants in the raised bed this year.  The little plants in front are radishes.

I also planted 2 tomatoes by the driveway since it is the sunniest spot I have, sun almost all day.  There is a patio tomato plant in the planter.  That may move to the backyard.  I haven't decided whether I'll put tomato cages around these plants.  I think that might make it too obvious to people on the street that it is tomato plants.  I don't want it to look like free food for the taking.

Last night was my 3 hour TV night so I sewed some more of the 16 patches.  I have 34 of 63 blocks sewn now.  This is 2 each of 17 different pairs of fabric.

Tutorial for the 16 patch is on my free resources page of my website.
