Thought i'd have a change for FNSI sewing. I dragged out Lucy to make an effort of prepping the last 13 blocks i need. I managed 3 -1/2 blocks. :)
As i was taking the photo from my kitchen window(in last blog post) i thought about all the lovely flowers in my front garden which i hardly see because of the way this house was built. "Hmm i really should plant flowers out back". I have some rather large pots which i could use but though a half barrel would be good. Well lo & behold a few days later i discovered them in Aldi. I only bought on but really should have grabbed 2. :( Off to Bunnings for potting mix & flowers & voila I have a lovely view outside the kitchen window. It contains petunias, pansies, snapdragons, alyssum & dianthus.
I was quite excited the other day upon examining the 2nd olive tree for signs of fruit & discovered some. Just tiny little bright green dots at the moment.
Son number 1 brought home a random citrus tree many years ago & we've been wondering ever since what it is. I found 2 flowers on it so cross fingers we may find out what it is.
Last week i had just started to walk out the back to talk to son number 2 when i heard croaking. Upon investigation i found the frog hiding in my large Bilbergia plant
I hope he hangs around. seems to go between being in the plant & being in the pipes. :)
Pop over to visit
Wendy to see who joined in for FNSI.

A lovely post Jeanette. Your lucy boston blocks look stunning. Gosh that barrel you have planted will be amazing with colour. xx
Loving your Lacy Boston blocks….
A beautiful colourful display growing in the barrel.
The frog has really camouflaged himself well in the plant.
I love the fabric choices for your blocks. The potted colour looks very pretty.
Lovely to see your garden blooming. Those blocks are looking beautiful.
Well done with your Lucy Boston blocks and a great idea for a pretty flower view. I saw those tubs in Aldi, now you've got me thinking :)
Your Lucy blocks are amazing, Jeanette. The fabrics are pretty as is the layout. Your potted flowers are a nice selection of colors. I imagine that pot will grow in pretty full. Can't wait to see what the mystery fruit is.
Those Lucy Boston quilts can take forever - your block look lovely...keep at it!
Hopefully you will get some mystery fruit so you know what it is...the flowers look pretty . . .do you wonder why it took so long to think of doing that? lol
