i traveled from one project to another this week...trying to get it all in...so just a little progress in each, but that's ok. eventually, each will be completed.

| a web stitch on a bit of lace. i'm told it looks like a dream catcher. |
 |
| did a bit more stitching on this piece. i thought it would be some kind of a vessel but plans have changed. |
and then some dyeing using spent flowers that i bought and from the garden.
 |
| rose petals, rose leaves, cosmos |
 |
| all bundled around a tin can and ready for the dye pot |
the garden is growing since we had 4½" of rain last week. these orange bulbs went from nothing peeping out of the soil to full blooming flowers in 6 days. i could almost watch them growing, it happened so fast.

| May 30th, in full bloom |
and almost forgot about this granny square afghan i started with a lace, variegated yarn...
 |
| trying to keep the blocks in order for a variegated look when stitched together |
we're hoping for some rain this evening. it's hot...in the 90s...and very humid. hope you're all having a good weekend and are out of harms way. lots of weather creating havoc these days.
