Oh, beautiful beautiful weather! Long may it last.
This morning I met a friend for coffee in her garden. She had a pot of thyme growing in a lovely pot sitting on the table. It was flowering and a busy buzzy bee was working round the whole plant, crawling from one flower to the next. I must do something similar.
The easiest way for me to source herbs for the garden is to add them to the grocery order, specifying 'no substitutes' so that they don't send me a packet of herbs already cut. I can then usually split the tight wadge of roots (after a good soaking) to make a couple of separate plants.
In the afternoon I did some sewing on the border of the cross stitch collaboration. I managed to completely finish one side, and I think it's going to look pretty good. Here's a corner with the beginning of one of the long sides so give you the idea;
Is that variegated thread or are you changing colour every half dozen stitches?
