Would you believe.. I've just read a lovely poem about roses.. only a short one & can't find it again to share with you :( Something like.. angels rest at the tips of roses.. what a wonderful thought :)

Have a lovely Sunday.xx; 5:00 AM, June 05, 2011
donnalouiserodgers said...: I was always told ( cannot remember who it was) that you should always leave a garden you are new to for at least two years as this is the cycle for many plants. So glad I listened - my garden would be missing many beautiful plants if I had discarded them too early.

Our honey suckle took three years to decide it would flower - now it is huge and heavy with scent and blossom

Bleubeard and I welcome you

Art, including the journey, background techniques, sewing on both paper and fabric, new experiments, photos, failures, and successes will be shared on this site. I have removed my e-mail address until such time as I can get it to work again. Thank you for understanding. You can always leave a note on my blog and I will visit you.

Please check out my Previous Collaborations link above to see what projects I have been involved in over the past 12 years. Current and ongoing projects only are shown below.

Occasionally, Silent Sunday will showcase photos of my home, neighborhood, or community. A picture is often worth a thousand words.
