My creative space…

February 17, 2011 60 Comments by Kirsty

It’s all about the garden at the moment.

The landscaping is in full swing & by next week we might have some plants! Hoo flaming ray I say … It’s been over 12 months of clay.

Of course green is on my mind & I’m making something for my landscaping-green-loving mate for her birthday. The large coat hook was located in the button stash when I was riffling through it looking for buttons for this lovely bit of hookery.

Do pop in and add your link if you’re playing along this week.

mmm green is my favourite colour. Look forward to seeing what you make. And I love the idea of a large granny square for your chair. I suggested covering a chair we have with crochet, but he turned his nose up at the idea. “too nana” he said. Enjoy the gardening!

I’m so excited about our garden! Even though it’s February, we’re having a warm week in Nebraska, US. I cleared the cobwebs and swept the deck today. Can’t wait for Spring!

Clay has its certain je ne sais quoi, I’m sure. Maybe less so after a bucketingly wet tropical-type summer…
