So after last week's washing, we carded our wool today and learned a bit about wool felting. This warm, humid weather isn't the best time for wool I guess, but they all seemed to enjoy it.
While some were hearing a story, others were working with the wool they carded.
We had felted bunnies, penguins, bumble bees and even a flag.
Bugg's lilly bloomed this week. I planted a bed of these as she and I enjoyed all things garden and flowers for a time and that is her actual name. Looks like she'll miss the blooming this year.
I have no idea where this seed pod came from but I love this picture.
So happy to see this phlox about to bust out. I don't have good luck with them. This a return one, so that is lovely.
I usually buy bushes on clearance, but this beauty caught my eye and I grabbed her up. She does not disappoint. Makes me happy every time I see her.
Numerous times I have tried and failed to grow any kind of poppy. When I visited Tasha Tudor's garden I saw exactly one poppy seed pod. I asked if I could have it and they were happy to let me.
From that two little starts came forth and then finally, it bloomed.
Color me excited as I could be.
If you heard a squeal coming from this direction, it was probably me. I think it looks quite Seussical.
She turned her face to sun as the morning went on, then straight up. I hope she will self seed.
Uncle Jimi is really having a kind of awful time of it. I feel so brokenhearted for him. That procedure that saved his life, hasn't given him much of a life. He is struggling. I would appreciate prayers for healing for him and wisdom for us to know how to best get him on a right road.
