Finished block.

Here we are with a brand newy shiny week stretching out in front of us. I got to finish my 7th block in my "Country Garden" quilt accompanied by the revving of many, many V8 racing cars yesterday.
I am obliged to say "Well done HDT" There I've done my duty as the wife of a Holden nut!

Strawberry block from Country Garden quilt
I also thought I would give you an update on my new vegie garden I know very boring but I am so thrilled at it's progress not to mention downright amazed. I actually have flowers on my tomatoes...woohoo!               
Ain't that a beautiful sight! Even No 1 Grandson is impressed!
Yummy beetroot and lettuce (2 varieties are you impressed) I am!!
Well I hope you all enjoy your brand new Monday. Don't forget to spread the smiles and love around... you may just change someone's life for the better perhaps your own and not even know it. Me I have a date with my Yoga mat and my lovely Yoga sisters and I am really looking forward to it.               
Blessings Michelle xx

    Vegie garden looks great. I have heard the flowers you have planted will help keep bugs away....I am guessing you already know this. Great week ahead, have a good one. Trish

    Love the vegie patch. Must show it to DH as DD2 wants to do something similar. Stitching versus Bathurst.. mmmm I'll take stitching any day. Just as a BTW on Mel's slide show it's me and Rosalie standing by the quilt. That way you can put a face to a name. As you look its me on the left and Rosalie on the right( how's that LL and RR)

    Hello Michelle,

    Love your vegie garden, it is going great guns. Won't mention why people drive round and round a race track using up all that fuel and making a hell of a racket when they could be doing some stitching!!!

    Oh lookie lookie you are so clever I am impressed! I'm very happy to see marigolds in your veggie garden too, I'm a companion planting fan. Your strawberry basket is delightful too.
