Herbularius: the last small garden


The fourth of the small gardens is finished too! I already continued stitching another artichoke of part 10.


This weekend is IHSW again and I planned to stitch a lot of part 10.
But perhaps I'll make a switch to the lovely Fire Lily, another of my Chatelaine projects, to see what the flower will look like when it is stitched.

On Sunday we celebrated mom's birthday with a party in my sister's garden. Last year we had to cancel the party because mom fell. But now she is fully recovered and very happy and content in the old people's home. Mom had a wonderfull day with a lot of guests. Almost the whole family was gathered around her, including some relatives she hasn't met for a long time.


Thanks again for your visits and your lovely comments!

Hoi Ineke,
Wat is ie mooi je Herbularius! Met elk tuintje dat erbij komt (met verschillende speciale steekjes nog wel) wordt ie groter en mooier!
Een dikke proficiat aan de jarige ... 86 is niet niks!
Groetjes,
Ann

Beautiful as usual Ineke. :) I enlarged the pic and I swear this little garden could be a pattern all its own. Gorgeous!

Congratulations to your mom, too. 86 years... what a blessing.
