back tack happiness
So I received the loveliest backtack package from Carolyn in Australia...
(You should go look at her blog, because her pictures are much better than mine.)
Look at that fabulous bag (which I am now toting around everywhere)! With my name on it! :) And a Rowan Living book to guide me in my stalled home decorating. So pretty!
I wanted to learn the hip new craft of tatting, so she sent me a little kit. I have produced this tiny misshapen ringlet so far:
There was chocolate, too. It is long gone.
Thank you, Carolyn!
(I will reveal my own back tack effort this week. Two posts in one week!)
This weekend was all about yardwork on the old homestead. I managed to transfer all of my bulbs from the refrigerator into the ground. Daffodils live here:
Jon made the clever border. And trimmed hedges. And chopped down lots of dead things with his fearsome combination of machete, axe, and gardening shears. He's a far more diligent yardworker than I. At least I avoided any poison ivy.
