Garden Path - Jacket - Part XIII

A Good Start


I was able to sit down last night and get a good start on the redesigned applique. While it isn't much, just some stems and leaves, I feel like I'm on the right track and headed in the right direction.

Tonight I hope to finish the stems and leaves and work on the rosebud and small rose. I've got the pieces all ready so once dinner is done, I'll be headed for my chair to listen to TV and applique.

Next week, I will really concentrate on this project. This week was a bit busy between the wedding gown, the children starting vacation and all kinds of other things. Let's hope that you'll be seeing more flowers appear over the next week!

Parting Shot: Planted. My son and I went out early this morning to plant the garden. He was so excited. Little does he know that the fun has just begun, because weeding will be on his schedule for the rest of the summer.

That is going to be spectacular. So what did you plant? (Or did I miss that in a previous post?)

Poor kid - he doesn't know what he's in for! I remember doing that as a kid! We sure did have a spectacular garden though!

Does anyone know where the tute for applying an invisible zipper and attaching the lining by machine is? I saw one a while back, and when I recently wanted to do so on my dd's dress, I couldn't find it.

My kids all grew up gardening, and actually like it still...even after a used "weeding" as a punishment with a couple of them. Like the applique plans!

Summerset, thank you for you comments on my post. The Garden Path is coming along just lovely. I had being awarded the “Lovely Blog Award”, and in gratitude I have award it you. Although this is for newly discover Blogs, and I had being following yours for a while, I still fine “Pins and Needles” well deserving. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge.

Garden Path is already looking beautiful. When I was a kid we all had our own gardens. It's a great way to learn
