Eileen, that's a great skill to have. I've often thought about making pajamas or a shirt, but never have. I did take apart a shirt and resize...
Mel thank you for your supportive words :stew1:. I think the basic idea of quilts is pretty easy. Being more creative about it can be more...
Thank you Sjoerd. I made some mistakes, but I think I'll be happy with the final result. I wondered how well the top, which is not perfectly...
The fabric that I ordered for backing has a cream background. It looked white on my tablet. It'll get used, but that clashes with this quilt's...
I planted tomato seeds over the past few days. Not much time in the garden otherwise, due to volunteer stuff and house stuff. The refrigerator...
Planted the first of the tomato seeds. [ATTACH] A lot are home saved. I'm also trying some new ones. Most are dwarf and open-pollinated or...
I guess if they can dry the fish, it would be a cheaper to transport. Same for seaweed. Somewhere I read that there are ways to corral and...
Nice! Sjoerd, am I right, guessing that you don't worry about segregating species? So the compost is from all kinds of plants, and is used for...
Or... [ATTACH] https://wonderfuldiy.com/wonderful-diy-old-jeans-planter/ Lots of ideas if you like to sew......

Thank you Mel. I think you are fine about the peppers. They should still make lots of branches and lots of fruit. I love all kinds of peppers....
Compost is garden gold. I did read that the sargasso sea seaweed might be high in arsenic? Maybe cadmium, too. Don't quote me on that. I want...
Great story! I get attached to mine too. But it's me who sews them. Now mine are cargo types that I have to buy on Amazon because they don't...
I had to look those up! They will be very pretty.
That's a big discovery. And they last for many years. Mine are a decade old and haven't quit working.
@Melody Mc. you are doing a beautiful job! Those pepper plants are so nice! I planted all of my onion seedlings outside. I don't know how the...
That's good to know, @Logan. I agree on the rose cuttings, too. I tried grafting these because the roots are established and maybe vigorous...
That's amazing! It will be months here, before asparagus grows. Bon apetit!
@Sjoerd, Thank you for the compliment. I think everyone on here is incredibly interesting, including you. Everyone here enriches my psyche and...
