These past few weeks have gone by in a blur. We did manage to dig out the three decrepit bushes at the front of the house and plant a more native bed. Here are some shots of Ian and our helper on the project.





I also finished the 100 blocks to my quilt several weeks ago but am not keen on how they look together - verrry busy. I'm waiting for some inspiration on how to make it a little easier on the eyes before actually sewing them all together. I'm thinking of breaking up the pattern with some solid strips or something. However, I think I will just put it on hold for now since I'm also not keen on investing in more fabric at the moment since Ian and I are going to Italy in April and trying to cut down on extra spending until after the trip.
