I made and sewed on a row of light brown hexagons inside my border to hide any gaps along the edge of the background fabric. I used light brown so that there would not be a strong line around the edge.
I tacked and then appliqued the border onto the background fabric.
I am going to applique the outer edge of the border onto this beige fabric and mitre the edges. This might take some time!

Owlivia our Barn Owl
Some photographs of Owlivia from our live cam sitting on four eggs.
You can see the story of our barn owl at WWW.highwoodlife.com, under wildlife.
The eggs should hatch any time soon and if you visit the site you can what happens. It is nature so anything can happen!
We asked our family and friends to name her!
Sometimes it is as if she knows we are looking at her.
Owlivia turns the eggs to make sure they are kept constantly warm.

Garden Clearance
We found this beautiful birds nest.
The area near the vegetable garden is now becoming more open but most of these trees still need to come down.
I have started to reclaim my sleeper steps which were hidden with weeds and nettles but cannot go further until the trees have been cropped.
Half of the old wall had already fallen down and the rest is now exposed. We will use it hopefully as part of the foundations of our new garage (We need planning first!).
The hazel trees have been cropped and will be removed when the digger comes to dig out the foundations for our new kitchen and patio.
