EDF energy crochet pattern

 A morning of hard work has paid off and I'm really pleased with how the pattern for this little blob from the Edf energy adverts has worked out. The pattern is now off with my wonderful resident pattern tester and when shes finished with it it will be available from my etsy shop. All the money from these sold goes to the kidney paients association and I hope it does well for them.

 What a change to the weather we've had here in york after all that rain its finally warm and sunny today. I was able to take my camera into the garden to shoot the little blob and doesn't he look cute next to the marigolds :)

 I've also taken advantage of the sunshine to dry my latest embroidery.

 This is gonna be a kindle cover. Its a quote from a wise mans fear by Patrick Rothfoss. The king killer Chronicles are one of my favourite books and there are so many great quotes from them I think I'm gonna have to do a range of these. It's stitched on linen and as its dried its looks like parchment which I really like, I'm gonna back it and line it in a simple patterned fabric when the Mexican stand off with my sewing machine is resolved.

 The wet weather hasn't done too much damage in the garden. The veg patch isn't doing much but everything else it coming on a treat. This foxglove is 8ft tall. The hosta and heucheras are doing well under the shade of the hedge. Everything needs a good weed and tidy up but its looking good.

 This is a sweet pea Lathyrus sativus Azureus its the second year I've grown it as it really is so beautiful.

My favourite rose, crazy for you. Its mine and Andy's rose. Its looking a bit straggly this year but the flowers are so pretty and the scent is wonderful.
 Well I'm gonna go back out and play in the garden while the sun is still shining.
