A woodcarvers garden and a little bit of sock knitting

Busy Busy gal I have been this week. Between rug hooking lots of errands, buying knitting needles and shopping for clothes I have been so busy!I used my left over ham and made ham and bean soup for hubby since it's cold and rainy today. I am going to freeze some for him so he can have it while I am gone at sock camp.I am going to miss Hubby and Maulie and of course Morris.Next week I'll be in Port Ludlow knitting needles in my hand and a smile on my face.  

First I have some current pictures from Dee’s garden.

About a month ago she needed a new fence so out went her tree and a new fence was put up and a new gate. It was sad to lose the tree but I like the way she used her old fence against the new one. All gardens change thru out the life of a gardener and every season brings adversity whether it’s gophers,rabbits,frost or a new fence. I was happy to see her garden still had her unique personality. I like her logs that she pushes  around her garden to give it a natural look.

It was such a lovely day at Dee’s we had tea and shortbread and a cup of ice cream. Visiting Dee in her home is stepping back in time feeling like you traveled back hundreds of years. I felt like a little kid. I brought my Moo Cow rug to show her what I have been doing.

Dee my wonderful wood carver friend gifted me with a wooden carved heart for Megan and one for me.I love it!

Braided rug Michele gave me I love it!

I have about four days til I am off to sock camp. I can’t believe I have so much to do. First I have homework and I am trying to make sure I have warm clothes. I am getting all my knitting supplies rounded up. I feel so scattered lately trying to get stuff done. I’ll post one last post before I leave of rug hooking group last Tuesday before I leave on Tuesday.
