This is the second project in my online class with Susan Bourdet I had taken some lovely pictures of morning glories growing on my garden fence and previously had attempted to paint them but the painting went in the trash bin. This class gave me the opportunity to attempt morning glories again and I am much more pleased with the results. The painting is 20x20 inches. I hope everyone has a great weekend! My next project - passion flowers.

(USPP 13,859 expired) Brunnera 'Jack Frost' is one of those rare occasions when a plant comes along that has the "WOW" factor.This is a truly stunning Walters Gardens discovery...a sport of Brunnera 'Langtrees' that makes a brilliant, 18" wide, deer-resistant clump of round, frosty silver leaves. Each leaf is highlighted by a dramatic green border as well as narrow green vein lines running through the solid silver leaf. As if you needed more, the clump is topped with tiny clusters of blue flowers in early spring...a true superstar of the shade garden. Provide evenly moist, rich soils to grow the best plants. Maintenance: Brunnera is essentially maintenance free. If you're a neat freak, you may want to remove the old flower stalks when they finish in late spring, but if have the need to do this, you may also want to seek treatment for OCD. The clumps die to the ground in fall, and the old leaves will generally just fade away. Despite what you sometimes read on-line, Brunnera macrophylla does not spread by rhizomes. It is a tight clumping perennial, although it can be divided after growing well for 3-5 years. Growing Conditions: Brunnera macrophylla prefers moist, well-drained soils for best performance in a light, open shade, woodland condition. Brunnera does not fair well in deep shade or shade that stays too dry for a longer period. Despite preferring a moist soil, brunnera does not like a waterlogged soil, which will cause the roots to rot. Garden Value: Brunnera is a great combination plant in the woodland garden to provide a bold-textured element in contrast to more fine textured plants like ferns and carex. The silver leaf color also adds a pop of color amongst green foliage. Natural Impacts: Bees are the favored pollinators.
We discovered Kent & Stowe Tools while we were in England last summer at an incredible garden store. I'm promising myself that I will take care of them : ) Kent & Stowe, a brand based in the United Kingdom, bases the design of their garden tools on drawings from the 1800's. They are not only pretty and utilitarian, but also offer a good "heft" in your hands.

A long time favorite of gardeners, Lychnis chalcedonica (Maltese Cross) is a herbaceous perennial that deserves a spot in the sunny landscape. Very attractive with its upright clump of lush bright green foliage topped by large, densely packed, round clusters of brillIant scarlet flowers, it enjoys a long season of interest, is easy to grow, trouble free, reliable, long-lived and adds bold splashes of color where needed. In short, the perfect perennial!

How to Prune Delphinium. The genus Delphinium contains nearly 300 species of flowering plants found in cool, temperate environments around the world. Many cultivated varieties of Delphinium go by the common name larkspur, which refers to the unusual spur-shaped protrusion on the back of each violet-blue blossom. The 4- to 6-foot-tall flower stalks...
The garden this year was a mixed bag. I had a variety of 9 tomato plants, all started from seed back in March. I've got a nice, warm craft area upstairs in a loft with shop lights. When my plants outgrow their 4 inch pots, I put them in one gallon pots and move them out to the greenhouse. Anyway, my poor tomato plants just flat-out withered and curled up. In the 10 years of gardening here, I have never, ever had a problem with tomatoes. Ever. But I was telling Bill to water down there every day for 30 minutes. He's got a great drip system set up, but no way did those plants need 30 minutes a day. It was the Percocet talking (I had just had a knee replacement; it wasn't my fault…). It wasn't his fault, either; he was just taking orders from a drugged up wife. I guess that'll teach him. Well, overwatering led to downy mildew on the pumpkins, too, but I think I managed to save them, so we'll have at least a dozen for the porch. I still decorate the porch and house for

CHOOSE 1 by number by using the option box to the right of the photos. CONDITION: made during the second and third week of March 2019, sometime in 2020 and August 2021. Some have added color like neon pink, yellow and grey accents, others are left with just black so you can embellish them as you wish. Many of them took a lot of time to embroider and I tried to make some using less stitches for affordability. SIZES: vary from tiny 3/4 to 1 inch fraying included in measure to largest about 2 inches by 3 inches not measuring the frayed edges. ZOOM in on photos with rulers for size reference of each one. The photo with rulers and coin will be added next week. OTHER DETAILS: These are art patches and are meant to disintegrate after washing because I like to watch mine break up and change into something different. I like to use these mending patches by outlining a border and then adding kantha stitches and as they decay and need more mending, I hope to color in the middle and flower petals. I've used them on my jeans, pj bottoms, t shirts, shorts and various other items, like scarfs, dish towels and linens. Also I like to sew the patches with the flowers facing the inside for some reason. See last photos for other examples of how I use mine. SUPPLIES USED: Made for spring 2019 inspired by my "Garden of WeEden" from recycled boro scraps, vintage black thread or embroidery floss and neon thread or other colors from vintage scrap embroidery floss. DOMESTIC SHIPPING: includes support, if needed and USPS shipping with tracking and insurance. Shipping overages of $2 are refunded after your shipping label has been made. We do our best to ship out promptly every Mon, Wed and Fri, unless it's a holiday and then we ship on the next designated day. Please read our shop and shipping policies before placing an order and ask questions, so we can meet your expectations. FREE local pick up in the Los Angeles area welcome. Thank you for your visit.

Thank you Etsy buyer for the inspiration! My collage with the patches are in photo 7. PHOTO 7: instead of a fabric collage for the embroidery patch, I used antique paper ephemera for the background in the float frames. PHOTO 8: I started working on a spring scarf using the Garden of WeEden patches, however, mending is like weeding in the garden! The more I repair the large mends, the smaller mends start to pop up! Just like the more I weed in the garden, the more weeds I see to pull out! So this scarf may not get done til next spring because it's mending looks endless! So fun! PHOTO 9: Some of the patches are in the tiny mini paper books holding scrap fabrics, a tiny patch and laundry label for tiny mends, scrapbook tabs and/or mixed media fabric art collages. You can see a laundry label used in the collages in photo 7, it's in the smallest frame. I've made several with scraps in them and I've made some empty ones so you can fill them up with your scraps! Tiny scrap books and EMPTY blank books are available at the link below: https://www.etsy.com/listing/160034894/1-tiny-handmade-japanese-paper-book-boro LAST PHOTO: I've been patching up my favorite jeans for over 10 years and I like to experiment, so some of the boro patches face inwardly as shown and I think these patches are at least 3-5 years old and have been through the wash countless times! and I haven't had to add any kantha, sashiko or fill in the flower middles with any stitching yet.

When I have extra time, I'm still sorting my huge box of boro scraps and some are in the tiny mini fabric scrap books at the link below. I've been experimenting with vintage paper ephemera and transferring them on to fabric for sturdier patches and started to experiment with making a larger fabric scrap book with 30-40s feedsack fabric scraps. Lastly, I've been sorting through my hoard again and found some cutter quilts that need to be cut up. I washed one and it fell apart, but I love all the mending needed on the pieces now, lol. HOARDER HISTORY: My conscious collecting seems to be moving from hoarding everything I love when I see it, to just 3 things now, vintage fabrics, boro and paper ephemera!
