Yesterday we had a trip in the back of a Ute with two pottery wheels on the trailer, to return them after the clay festival.
The potter's gate was interesting...
I did an hour or so's weeding this morning before it got too hot..
The vege garden here has heavy ground over mulch with planting holes..and each hole has an olla. This is a small terracotta pot shaped like an amphora almost, with a lid..buried in the earth to its shoulder. You water into the olla and put it's lid on. So the water goes just where it is needed. Weeds have spread over the groundcover..so I'm clearing that.
After lunch it cooled a little...so I started weeding a lavender hedge...that didn't get far!!...I beat a retreat, not wanting to be roasted by the sun!!
So more drawing...
And a little sewing ..Our Shirts, plus a small mending job...a draught excluder tiger...just head and a long tail...needed. a few stitches on its neck to keep its stuffing in!
I've nearly finished a square block for Our Shirts...had I got the dates right in my mind I would have brought the whole project..it fits in a small bag... But I just brought the one square block to show and finish.
Never mind...there is a quilt shop in the village..........
