Update on Birds of a feather.

I have worked a little more on this design and it is a beautiful design to work.

I have added some of the metallic thread to the border and as usual, it was badly behaved despite using thread heaven (which does help)

It is 4 1/2 weeks to our holiday in Spain and I am very pleased to report that I have managed to lose 8lbs since the start of the year. I'm not sure that I am going to make my target of a stone (14lbs) but I feel so much better nad all my clothes fit so much better now.

The days are really starting to lengthen here and the growing season will soon be upon us, in fact I already have some forced rhubarb almost ready for picking and my early potatoes are shooting up and have already been earthed up once. I love this time of year, almost every day there is something new to look at in the garden and that continues right through untill mid May when it is at it's best - in my opinion.
Thanks for reading my blog today.
By for now.
