Hello and a very Happy Monday to you.
The past week has flown by. A little secret sewing has been done but I have mainly been out in the garden working.
Last Friday I was so happy to receive my giveaway parcel from
Marj. A watercolour kit called "Spring Gardening." Marj was having a giveaway of items that she no longer wanted and there several items to choose from. I put my name in the hat for this kit and I was the lucky winner. Thanks so much Marj.
Saturday afternoon was the Garden Club meeting and one of the ladies had a pile of gardening books to pass onto others. I chose several and these two are my favourites. Rose books always make me happy.

Have you met Gertrude? She makes me very happy. We have several along the front garden and one up near the house outside the kitchen window. She is is full bloom now and the perfume is just divine.
I hope you have a very Happy Monday.
Happy days.

Hello Bev,
wow, what a great "Makes Me Happy Monday". The quilt kit looks beautiful and I'm sure it will be fun to go through your stash and see what you have for the quilt. Your Gertrude roses are stunning. I had one once but the bush did not do well. I think we planted it in a small plot. I think it should have been planted in a large area. Happy gardening and sewing. We had some nice rain this weekend. : )
Your garden and roses make me happy to Bev. Beautiful pattern and books.
I love Gertrude! All of our roses are completely gone now, because winter is one its way!
