It's time for Week #8 of the Farmhouse and Friends Garden Mystery Quilt Block!!
This week on March 20th was the first day of Spring
which means that gardening is just around the corner!!
I have such fun memories of my dad starting
the garden every year.
Planting peas were the first thing that went into the ground!
Now I am not a fan of peas and as a young girl
I remember having to sit at the table all by myself until i ate my peas!!!
My memory recalls the CANNED peas and I just don't like them.....
but planting, picking, and shelling them was the fun part as a kid.
I do have to say that I like to eat the peas fresh off the vine!!
So in memory of my dad and his garden, my garden block is pea plants started in egg shells!!
Such a fun way to start your plants and watch them grow!!
Happy Stitching and Happy Gardening!!
