Stitching In My Garden

Sleeve is Finished!!  
My next post will show you the finished dress!

In the morning I can sit under the fan in the shade and be comfortable. 
Today it's raining and I love the rain!

 Join me!  I would like to show you what I see from my rocking chair!

I plant flowers that hummingbirds and butterfly's like.
I also have Basil and Rosemary.

I am always looking for pretty Garden birds and critters.
I listen to the water from the fountain, the birds (they can empty the feeder in one day!) and my wind chimes.
You can't see all my pretty roses close up.  I love my roses.
You can see them in my Garden!

I am joining Tootsie at her Flaunt Your Flowers Friday.  You should see her lovely garden as well as others!

don't you love to smell the herbs wafting their fragrance when it rains? Or, as in our case,also in the humidity!!!!

Your garden is the most peaceful-looking place - a perfect place to sit and do handsewing - I can almost smell the aroma of the beautiful flowers when I look at your pictures!

Oh, it is peaceful. And I rarely buy roses that don't smell good so you can smell them! Thank you for sitting with me as I stitched.

What a special spot to create in, Jeannie!
I ♥ your entire garden but especially your roses...I'm trying to root some cuttings from my sister at the moment. They are a spectacular salmon-pink color. Keeping my fingers crossed that they'll take.

Your little sleeve is GORGEOUS! I clicked to enlarge the photos so I could see it better. can't wait to see the entire end result. :-)
