Hubby and I visited a flower show at a nearby nursery a couple of weekends ago. Here are a few photos:
I loved the garden statues, but they were quite expensive.
Don't you just love a waterfall?
I liked both the tree and the wind spinner.
I like the look of this hammock. Not sure I would like laying in it.
I love the deep purple/blue hydrangeas.
Yes, there was even a mini pool.
I was hoping to purchase one of the plants below, but they didn't have any to buy.
We bought a few items for our home though. I got one new indoor pot to repot one of my Christmas cactii. I bought the correct potting soil for it also.
I used this plants former pot to repot the other Christmas cactus that I have.
I also bought the correct food for them. I am hoping the repotting, food and more attentive care will help them bloom again. They haven't bloomed in several years.
I forgot to share a sweet item that I received in the mail from June of Butterfly Wings. She had made this sweet "Peter Rabbit" herself and was giving away the pattern. She included a small snowman also. I am looking forward to working on both of these.
This past weekend I managed to finally add the second to last log on ten more log cabin blocks. This log took forever. I discovered that I had cut some of the blue-green trapezoids an eighth of an inch too short. It mattered a lot! Ugh! There was a whole lot of seam ripping occurring while working on these.
I have chosen the pieces for the last log of these 10 blocks. Perhaps I will start sewing them next weekend.
Thanks for stopping by!
Oh I love going to garden flower shows .

ReplyDeleteCathie: It is sleeting/snowing here, it is a warm 35 degrees, but the air is cold hence the sleet/snow, icky.
ReplyDeleteI needed something to brighten my day your flower show photos did the job.
Sweet gifts from June, I am looking forward to seeing your progress on these two designs.
Your quilt is so pretty and bright.
Have a lovely week.
Catherine
I love flower shows the flowers are always so beautiful but I know I can never get a garden to look so well - I just don't have that good enough of a green thumb
ReplyDeleteThe garden centers are always so much fun. I'd like to have them for my own gardens! Love those blocks.
ReplyDeleteI would like those vignettes in my garden also.
