Tat, dig, weave and eat

 August Be-Stitched pattern.  I suggested a 2 round square pattern that can be tatted into a tablecloth and this is what Nancy Tracy came up with.  
I used Baroque Thread.
 Not a good year for the garden....only a little over 2 1/2 pounds from 6 seed potatoes.
 This is a cotton blanket I wove for my son and sewed a blanket binding on.  Just look at those mitered corners!
Breakfast.  Two poached eggs from the chickens on my homemade sourdough bread lightly toasted.  Yes......I like pepper.  :)

Peas and teaching knitting

Peas growing above the canopy! 
....and Kim's knitting.  First time ever knitting.
It was fun as she learned not to put her knitting down 
until she knit the entire row.  Why?  So she wouldn't have to guess which direction she was going.  :)
Needless to say, she caught on very quickly.

My garden groweth!

 Just LOOK at those pea plants!  They have loads of flowers here on June 5th.
A baby pea pod and a few more found after I noticed some flower petals on the garden soil below!!!

There was also a strawberry ready to eat.....um, I failed to take a photo before it was eaten.
