Time for this week's Good Fence with TexWizGirl at The Run *A* Round Ranch.
I found this gorgeous fence at the Australian Garden at Cranbourne Royal Botanical Gardens. It is surrounding the Children's Garden.
These gardens are really worth a visit if you are a visitor to Melbourne as well as for locals too. This spot was our last stop on the way home last Sunday. We really needed a walk to get rid of some of those yummy cake calories.
I've had a bit of a horrid week health wise, in fact I've been bedridden for a few days, too sick to sew or read due to my MS vertigo, so thank goodness I've had Miss Marple to keep me company. I do love an old fashioned mystery and a good British drama. (Luckily I'd written and scheduled all this week's posts on Sunday night so I didn't have to miss out on blog posts this week)
The world is whizzing around a bit less now so I think I'll give some sewing a go tonight and what could be better than to sew along with my bloggy friends. And thanks to Cheryll and Friday Night with Friends I can do this. You can sign up HERE.
How cute is this tea towel?
It uses what we used to call Chicken Scratch embroidery. I found it HERE at wonderful Riley Blake Designs. The tutorial was written by fabulous Deonn @ Quiltscapes.
Hope your day is filled with happiness.
Love

ReplyDeleteMel, sorry to hear about the vertigo, it's the one thing I have experienced I hope I never get again.
ReplyDeleteIt is good NOTY is back in DC. Now I can get down there again.
It has been good to see all your blog posts, thanks for doing so much for us to view.
I love all teh fences. And the garden seem great too.
ReplyDeleteMS must be the biggest pest to your life. It's a mean illness. I do hope that it leaves you alone for a goodly long while.
ReplyDeleteI love a good Miss Marple as well. I think I've really enjoyed the Geraldine McEwan interpretation of the role the best, although all Miss Marples are usually brilliant. :)
Take care
I like how you used the fence to draw you into thee shot.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, Melody, sorry to hear you've been unwell, hope you are on the mend. I'm always amazed at what you manage to achieve despite your condition and how you keep that big smile in place. Best wishes to you.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about the vertigo. I go through stages where I have vertigo for a few weeks and it's horrendous. x
ReplyDeleteHope you are a lot better now. Sending you a big hug from Italy!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely fence Mel. Hope you are on the improve
ReplyDeleteOh no, I'm so sorry you've been ill. Vertigo is bad as you really can't do anything at all. I had no idea it was a part of MS. Take it easy.
