sunday handiwork





There was another heat warning in effect today
as the the heat index rose to the high 90's.

I stayed at home and did some very fast cleaning
so I could get back to my embroidery!
(Dave, leave the white gloves in Florida!)

The unplanned style of the garden required more time 
to work out but I kept reminding myself "this is just a sampler."
It's all very basic but now I have plenty of ideas.

I made a refillable cheesecloth bag and stuffed it with lavender.
It felt great to complete something in such a short amount of time

Hope everyone had a lovely summertime weekend.
xo, j
