This spring has me so inspired in so many ways.
My garden brings me joy everyday. In the morning I putter around and check to see who is bigger and growing well. I think my guys (the plants) are going to be wonderful producers. I have a new favorite show, I want to be this woman! She is so rustic and earthy. Its called The Edible Garden. I can watch the same show over and over until the next one airs.
Here are some current garden pics.
In my square foot garden I am growing peas, broccoli, lettuce, onions, kale, and cilantro so far.
In another area, I tilled the ground with some compost and peat moss. So far I have planted corn, kale and brussels sprouts in that one.
This is the corn:
This row has the brussels sprouts and kale:
I can't wait for the fear of frost to pass so I can get my tomatoes and peppers going. At night, I lay in bed obsessing about what else I can plant. I'm thinking potatoes, garlic, cucumbers etc...
I have also been sewing again. I seem to go through sewing phases. I will sew almost everyday for three weeks, and then it might take another month before I start up again.
Here is a little wristlet clutch type bag I made:
I also made a cool reversible bag. You can get the tutorial here. I finally found a use for this awesome vintage tree fabric that I bought at a thrift store. The whole bag was made from thrifted materials so I think it probably cost me like a dollar to make it.
I'm also loving that its yard sale season. The other day I found two awesome plant stands for only ten dollars! Now, my container plants look even better!
Love the garden! Love the plant stand! Love love love the bag with the trees on it! Who's it for (hint, hint!)? Lol!
