Just over a week ago I managed in between down pours to prune my beautiful rose which I think is called Compassion, although I'm not 100% sure as I received it as a cutting. I have given many cuttings away over the past ten years. It's a rose with an incredible scent & three good flushes of flowering from October through to May. I am told it is meant to be a climber, so I am trying with a cutting I took a couple of years ago, I will keep you posted.

The pruning stages

When it's flowering! Can you smell it??

Thanks for stopping by,

Leeanne.

Stephanie's Applique Quilt




                           Stephanie's quilt is a wonderful display of some clever stash busting.


Stephanie asked for custom quilting, we discussed several options, the rest was left to the quilters artistic interpretations of the quilts style.



After all the necessary ditch stitching was completed it was time for the quilting of leafy vines, swirls, feathers, flower details and ribbon candy.





The thread I used for all this detail quilting was 'Unicorn' a Fantastico thread by Superior Threads.
Thank you Stephanie, I think it's fair to say we make a good team!
Ending this post with a little collage of scenes from my garden today..........................
