Vegging out ...

... out of the ground that is, I ventured to the allotment and lifted some leeks, carrots and parsnips, oh and grabbed a red onion just for good measure,  needless to say lunch was delicious!


There was more of this ....


LOTS more!

and I promised you better pics of this yesterday  ...


I am so pleased with the stitching, the Valdani Perle is just wonderful


Thank you Tina for reminding me of the value of the needle  :)

feeds my soul :)


and then there was a little more quilting on this ...


not as much as I'd hope, but progress, and that's always good. 

Happy Quilting!

Love your harvest - I used to have an allotment when I lived in London and it was such hard work but fun at the same time. V,cute pouch - will have to get myself on this pouch train!

That's Sue's quilt, isn't it? The quilting is looking lovely.

Nice carrots & leeks - I still can't grow carrot-fly free carrots, and the allium leaf miner is again a feature of my leeks. On the plus side I had roast veg with my tea tonight - potato, garlic, red pepper, squash, onion & parsnip ALL from the plot. Yum!

Your little bag looks great. Every time you show something like that I think "I really MUST learn to put zips in."

I love all those veg - dead jealous actually but then you worked for is and I didn't - and I also love how you staged your zippy pouch with them. Great photo.
