Blooming!!!

I took a little walk down the garden this morning to check on my Peony. No full blown flowers yet but just look at the new rose we put in last year......

The buds start off flushed with a lovely dark pink but as the roses open they are a beautiful creamy pink with a sugary pink blush....just gorgeous.

The climbing rose on what is left of the old apricot tree didn't flower last year as we cut it back really hard. Judging by the number of buds it is going to put on one heck of a show this year and already smells wonderful.

The little birdhouse is the home of Mr and Mrs Blue Tit and their babies. I couldn't hear them cheeping this morning so I hope everything is OK in there.

Jobs done, papers read and coffee partaken of so I am back at the sewing machine and making a black and white gingham circle skirt for Ruby's doll. I'm using up offcuts to make as many clothes as I can and clear some space as I am getting a bit twitchy for new fabric....lol.

Hope you are all enjoying this sunny day.
