Embroidery?
Not that kind of sewing.
Very little garden time at the weekend - did manage to complete the paving near the front door and a bit of tidying in the front garden, though.
Used a spare half hour to sow some more lettuce, some parsley and some more broad beans (Bunyard's exhibition). Also did outdoor cucumbers (marketmore) - sown indoors. Also two kinds of pea - Reuzensuiker (mangetout) and sugar bon (sugar snap).
Quite a lot of things have germinated and need to be pricked out now - artichokes, poppies, eucalyptus, tomatoes, sprouts, for example. Have to start thinking about where to fit everything in, too.
Am toying with the idea of converting the boys' garden into a runner bean & mangetout tunnel - make a tunnel using bamboo canes and old lengths of hose and then let the runner beans cover it - imagine the boys would like sitting inside there (and they could pick the beans each day, too!)
