Ladybugs - Daisies - White Lace

String / Strip Pieced

Crazy Quilt Blocks

 

 9 beautiful HOMEMADE quilt blocks.

 

 11x11 each.

 

I enjoyed creating these beauties.

Adding the touch of lace on each block was such a great idea.

☺️It's planting time.

I love gardening.

 

I do all of my digging with my trusty shovel.

I think that I added a few more photos here that weren't in my first gardening post of this season.

The girls / chickens loves helping.  They even offer additional fertilizer while I dig.

The beets, garlic and white potato are strays that I threw in - leftover from store purchases.

The above will become fertilizer.  (I covered it after I finished digging.)

We found numerous earthworms.

Apprx. 11x 11 inches each.

+++  Beautiful fussy - cut toile centers.

Would a CHICKEN consider gardening?

 

 

Well, she looks as though she is curious about the shovel.

 

Guessing, she decided that bugs are more entertaining.

 

Broccoli - root failure here.

I planted several store-bought broccoli roots here. No broccoli materialized.

 

Hardy Winter vegetables.

It's  G A R D E N  Season  Again

 

 

I finally got around to picking up my hoe, shovel, rake, and began the digging.

 

The beets, a small white potato or two, and the garlic somehow survived the Winter.

 

 

 I show you "before" and "after" photos to clarify the amount of work that was done solely by me. -and within three hours, this April 16, 2019.

 

 

The girls / chickens were in earthworm heaven during the digging.

 

There were so many earthworms. I think that the girls received a month's supply this one day.

 

 

 

About halfway through Plot 1. 

 

The grass was beautiful; but, had to go.

 

Oh the smell of fresh Earth.

 

 

After "Plot 1" was completed, I threw a few cabbage, carrot and sweet potato hulls in -that will be covered and become fertilizer.

 

...and, now to planting the bare areas - and then to Plot 2.
