Gardening mostly in pots

Good afternoon friends. I have been out in the yard this morning. Bambi and I took a long walk. I loaded a assortment of pictures today.



The first photo is the tomatoes one year when we had the big garden. We had a very big garden 10 years!! I worked my self to death!!!!! Look at all the beautiful tomatoes. I caned, I pickled

and I jammed!!!! I worked harder than I had ever worked before.



This year most of are garden will be in containers, is in containers!!! I still have some more planting to do. Last year all are garden was in containers.




I thought you might like to see a quilt today. This quilt was at Paducah, Ky in 99's big quilt show. I really liked this quilt.
A picture of me in, I think 2000, I made the collar. I am planing to TRY to get back to sewing. I have been going through my fabric stash looking for fabric that I would like to make shopping bags out of. We always shop with cloth bags. We try not to bring home so much plastic bags!!!!
I hope my body will let me sew, we will see.


By the way, people, I have not had a dizzy spell since last Saturday. If I can get by without one today it will be 5 days in between spells. Maybe they are over for this go around!!!!

Thanks for coming to see me!!! I love your visits.
Love you all lots, Bambi and her Mom, Fern

    I love the quilt and I am so glad you are not having dizzy spells any more. I hope they don't come back either.
    I love to flower garden but never vegetables. My dad (before he passed away) and step dad both had big gardens so I would get plenty of vege's from them!

    Greetings Fern, What a beautiful photo of you!
    I love the harvest you had of tomatoes, and being a quilter I love the quilt. I've had vertigo several times and know how hard it can be-so glad to hear you aren't having the spells anymore.
    Have a wonderful weekend.

    No more dizzy spells? That's that best nws I've heard in a while! Whatever you're doing, keep it up!
    I had a huge garden several years ago and I never will again...too much work! I have some tomatoes plants and that's it this year...
    Do you have deer dome in your yard and eat plants? The silly deer here are eating my roses, thorns and all!!! Makes me so mad, but I do love my deer!
    Love the picture of you w' pretty collar!
    Hugs to all,

    Hey Fern, my husband has been off work this week so I have not had the time to blog. I really miss you guys. I love your garden. I wish I had a green thumb and a better back so I could do that kind of stuff. The Quilt is beautiful. I hope your dizzy spells are gone for good.
