Yea Gads!

I have become a really crap blogger!
 
August?
 
I haven't blogged since August?!
 
In my defence I have been blogging, just not on this blog. There's the blog for my business, the occasional post on the magazine's blog and then the parallel blog I started to chart the journey of TK and me as we took on an allotment.
I think it might be best to merge the allotment with this one........as then at least I might say something every now and then!
 
So new year and all that, let's have a bit of veg growing as well as quilting on this blog.
 
First off, here's what the plot looked like when we took it over in May last year.
 
 
A tinsy bit overgrown!

The plot extends as far as the metal frame at the far end. Its quite a big plot. I love working on the allotment; it gives me the chance to get a bit of fresh air, a bit of a workout as well as a bit of time to think.
 
And here's what it looked like at the end of December
 
 
It actually looks like an allotment again!
 
We had a small harvest last year and are just gearing up for a new season.
 
In the meantime TK and I did a little bit of sewing today when we visited a quilt group. Block D1 of our Sylvia's Bridal Sampler quilt.
 
 
 
So this could work right? A bit of quilting with a bit of vegetable growing?
