Konnykards - Musings of a senior citizen. Monday, 31 August 2009. Today is our wedding anniversary - two years ago a friend gave us a rose bush for our Golden Wedding Anniversary. It hasn't had many blooms so far but each one is gorgeous. I need a few notecards so I'll make them from this photo. Konnykards . Musings of a Senior Citizen. Links to this post. Sunday, 23 August 2009. About 50 years ago we bought a 'Himalayan Giant' blackberry plant and planted it 'out of the way' at the end of the garden.

Konnykards - Musings of a senior citizen. Tuesday, 30 March 2010. TAST 3 and 4. 3 Beaded Hedebo Stitch. Basic stitch on a narrow Aida band - maybe I'll make a similar one to use on a postcard sometime. 4 Portuguese Border Stitch. A mini sampler in chunky wool on Rustic Aida. I haven't attempted variations - which are really intended in the challenge - as I'm catching up the first four weeks. I'll make more effort now that I'm on time target and with a week for each stitch. Links to this post. We had a lo...

Konnykards - Musings of a senior citizen. Tuesday, 21 July 2009. And *:# * . I keep seeing people and having scans and tests and things and I still can't walk or stand for long . I know things could be worse, and are for many, but I do get frustrated! So, yet again I sit - and cheer up by playing at stitching or www browsing! I've recently seen several remarks on blogs like "life's so short, start everything". By Sunday this little 11x10cm. picture was finished (amazing - something finished! Once again I...

Konnykards - Musings of a senior citizen. Wednesday, 23 June 2010. I came home from having my new hip on 11th June. The sun is shining, the garden aglow and I can enjoy it and look forward to pottering there soon. Unfortunately our web connection was down and we only got back on line yesterday - really frustrating. Well, at last I can thank everyone for all their good wishes and messages over the many months I have been grumpy and unwell! Big smiles all round! Konnykards . Musings of a Senior Citizen.

Konnykards - Musings of a senior citizen. Thursday, 29 October 2009. More Autumn colours . I haven't been blogging often recently as I'm in an unsettled mood, not doing anything very interesting or original . I had a lovely collection of red fibres from Carolyn, love-stitching-red.blogspot.com recently though and really enjoyed sorting out a few bits and pieces to send to her. The red fibres are lovely for Christmas work - hopefully I'll get inspiration to use them soon. Links to this post. OH John and I...
