Hello again to all my lovely readers.......we have flowers today....summery and bright.....
........this is my new favourite jug filled with flowers from our garden.......
.......and featuring the easy four patch quilt in pretty floral fabrics too....(the pdf quilt pattern is in my etsy shop link in bio)......
.........this dahlia (plant) is impressively large this year.......and there are lots of buds still to open.....
.......below is the sweetpea patch also filled with poppies.....our weather became cooler and we had rain so no need to do so much watering recently.....
..........a pot full of nasturtiums.......
........and a whole bed of white daisies against the picket fence......
......last weekend was the RHS flower show at tatton park in cheshire.......i visited with my dear daughter sarah....she now shares my garden enthusiasm :).......
.....it was a grey day and when we arrived it began to pour with rain.......(ironic after all the blazing heat we'd had and me joking about wanting some nice british drizzle....well, i got it and more besides)......
.........it was an interesting day though and lots to see........and certainly plenty of alliums reminding me to plant a lot more this year........love the massed drifts here.......
........today i spent gardening in my cottage garden....and discovering lupins invaded by aphids and snails.....lots to get busy with this weekend that's for sure......
.........thank you for dropping by to see me here dear readers and your sweet messages.......wishing you a happy week with flowers, sunshine and crafty inspirations......take care lovelies.........peace and love...........back soon xxxxxxxxxxx

Your garden is looking so beautiful Helen. :) What a lovely visit to Tatton Hall too ... so much inspiration, I too always wish I'd planted more alliums.
Love your dahlias so much, wish I had could grow them .... grrrrr to those pesky snails!!
Happy weekend my dear,

Have I ever told you...I love your photos and the flowers, too. I so look forward to seeing every last one. Thank you, Helen.
Gorgeous flowers!
Another inspiring post! I have your easy four patch pattern and have even bought some fat quarters to make it with - I really must get it done! You have a lovely home and garden, it looks so bright but peaceful.
Flowers and stitching , what could be better .
Love your flowers.
Hi Helen, lovely pictures as always with you, flowers an quilts being a perfect combination.
can i ask if your still on instagram ? i can no longer access your pageant i have no idea why . maybe you've blocked me , though i don't think i did anything wrong. i do miss your lovely pictures popping up on my feed and our book chat - not to mention the quilts .
