Wednesday 14th May - spoiler alert

But first;

In the garden 

The past few weeks have shown an astonishing amout of growth in the garden

Here's the veg patch at the beginning of the month 

Here it is today, two weeks later

I can hardly believe it. Potatoes, broad beans and peas all growing while I watch. Every day I find myself standing and staring at them.

We shall have roses soon

Music

Here's a lovely melody from Fauré. I've used the version which shows the score as I was intrigued to see how it was written. 

And now here's the spoiler that I alerted you about 

 I'm about to share a short vdeo I tripped across when looking for something else (as you do...)

And it is about a simple embroidery stitch which I'm definitely going to use!

The thing is, I'm left-handed, and when I watch a video tutorial I don't always manage to reverse the instructions successfully in my head, with all the consequences that ensue. But I wanted to share my sudden brainwave; just turn the phone upside-down! So if I sew from bottom to top instead of top to bottom... seemples! 

The video is only 6 seconds long, blink and you'll miss is;
