Binding and Planting
My June UFO now has the binding sewn on to the front:
Ready to be hand-sewn to the back. I have three sit and sew gatherings in the next five days, so I am pretty sure this UFO will be crossed off the list before the end of the month.

So the peonies are finally out of their pots and in the ground. This bed faces east, so they will get morning sunshine but be protected from the worst of summer. I hope they will be happy here. Now I've got until spring to find another spot for the dahlias.

You are good. I never pulled my dahlias out. Each flower grows the size of a dinner plate...
ReplyDeleteWe have been at war with chipmunks--overrun with them. they are eating all of my garden flowers, herbs--you name it...so am hanging up my gardening gloves for this season...sad but true...
ReplyDeleteI love how your binding came out--almost done, right? How wonderful hugs, Julierose
I love peonies but the one I brought did not survive the spring here, but now seeing that I planted it in the wrong spot. Might attempt another one, thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteThat wall makes a lovely shelter for your peonies, I hope they thrive in their new home.
ReplyDeleteI can't seem to grow dahlias. Love peonies, we saw some while away that were huge and soft pinks with bright pink frills.
