***monday monday***


.....and I can't remember the rest of the words to that song. Anyhow hope all had a good weekend...it was really hot and now has changed....again...still did a couple of hours gardening work for one of my ladies... laid and dug in three bags of compost and put down 8 bags of ....woodchips....please don't shout at me...she is 84 years of age and dear soul can't do the weeding any more and I have so much else to do besides just weed so it seemed the better idea....and it looks good for now...better than than two foot high couch grass which took about 8 hours to dig the worst out first...and all this in a small patio garden....
Before going out yesterday to our daughter and friends barbaque I started a new project...a small crazy quilt hanging...picture whatever....not sure how it will turn out and how to hang it ...will figure that one out later....would welcome any idea though...so here is a picture of yeterdays four hour attempt....



Also thought I would show you this altered art collage picture I made...It's a vintage photo transfer put onto fabric and then added a couple more layers of fabrics then put onto hessian, then suspened in a frame...hence....'Little girl lays at the foot of her bed...' etc....



so when i have done more to the quilt will let you know...toodleoooo

I'd be so sore after doing all you've been doing in the garden for your ladies!
Your crazy quilt hanging is looking good, and I love making things without a pattern or plan...just seeing how they evolve, and turn into, is a thrill. I've never done crazy quilting, but think it's beautiful. I can't wait to see how this turns out.
Your little girl altered collage is so sweet...your work is lovely...thanks for sharing...
take care, Kali :-)
p.s. yes thankfully i have had a better day today.
