Pretty foxgloves

Not a lot to write today, spent the morning doing household chores then this afternoon I walked up to the Floral Hall to give blood, but sadly my iron count was low, it needed to be 125 and mine was 123!
Have watered the gardens and the foxgloves are looking good in the front garden. If you look closely you can see a bees bottom in one of the pictures!
Talking of bees our tree bees and back under the guttering on the laundry room.




Last night I managed to finish the embroidery for the screen to go in the dolls house so the hands are better than they were!
Tina has ordered some sticky back leather type material for when I am backing the screen. We have booked to go and see a show next week on the story of the Everly Brothers, nice of Tina to agree to come with me.

  1. That a real shame to miss out on giving blood by 2 points. Next time you’ll have to take an iron tablet the night before 🤫
    The foxgloves do look nice. They really are a pretty flower and it looks like you have a few different colours. Wish we had more proper flowers in the garden. I’ve never been a pot plant person, but I’m seriously thinking of getting a few for around the flat.
    That embroidery look such tedious work. Your eyes must be 10 times better than mine! I’m looking forward to seeing the finished screen, and to see what’s next on the list.

  2. We have loads of foxgloves, so the bees will be happy.
    Plants are nice to have around the place and you could take photos of them too.
    Will wait until the backing material comes to finish the screen but may attach the embroidery to the panels tomorrow.

  3. I must admit that pics were part of the reason I fancy some pot plants.
