I planted some pink petunias yesterday afternoon. These are hanging off our back porch. I hope they grow and fill in the pot!
I stitched some pink flowers, too! Since starting Melisa's Summer stitch-along, I've been ignoring the Gail Pan Spring design that I had been working on. This is from her book, Changing Seasons. I've already finished "Winter," and eventually there will be Summer and Fall, too. I've decided it really is time to finish up Spring!
Alternating with that each evening, I also stitched up stamp #3 for the Summer SAL at PinkernPunkin. It made me crave some watermelon, lol!
On to stamp #4, which has sunflowers to stitch!

Your petunias are so pretty, Diann. You got me thinking of adding some to a hanging basket for my patio. I adore our Gail Pan stitch. She has the sweetest designs. Aaw and your Summer Stamps look wonderful. You brought a smile to my day. Hugs and Blessings.
ReplyDeleteYou are all set for your slow stitching today Diann! All fun things to work on.
ReplyDeleteIt is not watermelon eating time quite yet but I am also looking forward to when they are available from the farmer’s market. Alternating between projects is a good way to make progress on both. I love your embroidery…the pops of colour on the flowers are perfect! Gail at the cozy quilter
ReplyDeleteI love those pretty pink petunias. We do not have a good place to hang potted plants - too much hot summer sun - and I miss them! Your stitching is so pretty and colorful.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about watermelon time! Your pink petunias are so bright. They are the perfect accent for this time of year!
ReplyDeletePretty stitcheries, sweet cross stitches; both put a smile on my dial, Diann. Those pretty pink petunias will soon be cascading over the hanging basket; so summery.
ReplyDeleteit might take a couple weeks to get established but I hope your petunias grow and fill in the basket - I put 3 in different areas of the garden and hope they will fill in soon
ReplyDeleteI have petunias in hanging pots too. Your stitchery projects are coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteYou have lots of fun stitching in the works. I got behind on the blog reading this week. Your orange place mat is really cute. We had a lot of rain this week, which was nice. I like the rain without the storms!
ReplyDeleteI love the little black birds eating those watermelons! Lovely projects you're working on!
ReplyDeleteYou do such pretty stitching!
ReplyDeletePink flowers are my favorites and petunias are beautiful in your basket. Love your stitcheries. Your watermelon had me buy one last week. It is yummy.
ReplyDeletePretty flowers and beautiful stitches! The Gail Pan piece is so pretty, Diann. And you are coming right along with the Summer Stamp Sampler.
ReplyDeleteOh you make me want to start the summer stamp sampler! I finished the Spring one, and love it.
