Quick-fix crafty feel-good!

Well, I've been burying my head in the computer the last month or so working on a piece of writing / research that had to be finished to a deadline, thankfully my obliging daughter has slept well (before midnight at least!) meaning I could get it all done. The result being a book chapter written but a huge desire to get on with some crafting :D
For a quick-fix I got out an old duvet cover that had ink stains on it and liberated some of the patchwork boats and lighthouse, cutting them out, ironing and putting into frames. Took hardly anytime at all and has provided my much needed crafty feel-good fix!

I'll have to update with progress in the garden .. those tiny tomato plants have all grown up and my greenhouse is heaving but can't bring myself to get rid of any more (have passed on a couple to my neigbour along with some sweet pepper plants - no-body needs 15 sweet pepper plants!). Hopefully this will mean come the end of summer I will have plenty of tom's to keep us in stock for pasta sauce and green tomato chutney!
