ALL things loud and hideous, I haven't made the lot. 😛 But you can certainly blame me for this one. 😃

My new pillowslip. Feel free to gasp in astonishment at just how *beep* ugly it is.
Photo one: The newly stitched pillowslip, fugly side out.
Photo two: The newly stitched pillowslip, fugly side in.
Photo three: Fugly pillowslip stuffed.
Photo four: Tah-dahh!!!!!!!! Covered with a pillowcase, so no-one's any the wiser.
Photos five & six: The ugly, smelly, mouldy truth of JUST why I had to make a pillowslip out of such fugly material in the first place. WASH your pillowslips, people, then you won't have to do the same. I can now say I have learned the importance of doing so. 😃

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
