dahlia

Always proud of these as I grew them myself from seed. Another lovely show this year - pink, cream, yellow, red and an odd orangey coloured one. This little pompom yellow one looked so pretty in the sun. Faffed with a bit and I quite like the grungy effect. Made a skirt today for myself. Most of what I make is for someone else so it’s nice to have something new for me. So very hot today - far too hot to be in the garden but we did get a lovely long walk with Nelly and Ziggy whilst it was cool early this morning.
