Slow Sunday Stitching - August 29, 2021

 What a week.   I was on vacation for most of it, but it was not for fun.  There were several appointments and a contractor scheduled.  

The garden is still in overdrive - almost a half gallon of cherry tomatoes today!

I have new front stairs from the public side walk to the upper side walk.  This is something that has needed to be done for several years.

Nice and straight (the bottom section to the public side walk is straighter than the photo shows. It will now drain correctly).

Before, top step tilts up, bottom step tilts down, area to sidewalk tilts toward step and collects leaves.

I did not get a lot of crafting done this week.  Just an hour or so on Dutch Beauty, but I am closing in on a page finish, just that little bit of fill in and a parrot to go on this page!

Lucy Boston alternate block #3 is getting it's outer round of black honeycombs.


 And last, but certainly not least, the navy colored thrumbs are all into balls of yarn and Round 9 of the sock yarn blanket is well underway.

    1. I have walked up and down them half a dozen times since I took down the caution tape in utter delight. I can't wait to have this contractor tackle the fence and the back deck (hopefully next summer).

    1. I have to get some black Rustoleum and paint the railing, but it's so nice to not worry every time I go up and down about how nasty they are.

  4. It looks as if you are getting things done at your place. The stairs must be great and safe to walk up and down. Those cherry tomatoes look tasty. Home grown tomatoes are the best. Dutch Beauty is gorgeous.
