New online store!:-)

How exciting. I have an online store at: www.madeit.com.au/ilsa-fay
I'm selling my hats and flowers! It is really fun, only my gorgeous hubby is the only one who has bought anything! He is so crazy!

 Finally my hellebores are in full bloom. They are so gorgeous, I just love them.
This is my box of toilet-roll seedlings. I've sowed lots of delphinium seeds in these little toilet-roll pots. Then when they grow bigger, I can plant them directly into the ground. I adore delphiniums.
And yes, more flowers. I'm still working on my granny square bag. It's going to be lovely.:-) Have a gorgeous Sunday!

Busy crocheting, cooking and loving the garden.

I also started crocheting the back of a sleeveless-type cardi (my own design), so it is kind of developing as I go. Lovely yarn from Cleckheaton (really thick, maby 12ply).

This is a delicious soup I made for the girls -cauliflower and potato soup -thick and creamy with avocado on muffins. This was such a yummy and healthy soup. I love making warm soups in Winter. I love it even more when my teenaged daughters eat it all up in one sitting!
Here are some flowers from my garden, which at the moment is stunningly bare. I love the dots of colour of the budding jonquils though -Spring will come! I am sowing seeds of delphiniums this week and I threw lots of purple poppy seeds around the garden yesterday that I had kept from last Summer! I am planning to have heaps of delphiniums this year. Usually the snails get them as seedlings, but I am determined this year to beat the snails! I adore poppy pods. The purple poppies last year were absolutely gorgeous!



I am loving reading your comments and blogs! Have a great weekend!:-)
