November - already 9 days in.

Wow Seaburn, I loved that Aster! I have never seen one so large!
Alot of plants in my garden are still in flower, especially the Alstromerias!
I love your sewing too! I wouldn't have the patience!

I have left some in, that's the green stems behind the green sack. But I will keep my eye on it this time. Would you like some? Happy to send you some if you'd like a piece.

I find the sewing very relaxing, something to do when the weather is duff.

Wow, you aren't half talented - those are beautiful! Is the frame fabric or wood? Very well done with the Asters - you must be shattered!

That Aster is amazing! I had no idea they could grow that big.
You must have some real mussels!
Your table centres are beautiful. I could never do anything like that..

The beech tree is looking beautiful, Eileen! Love the autumn colour! Those gorgeous vivid pink chrysanthemums, penstemon and fuchsia! Wow! A joy to see in November, very cheering indeed!
The aster was just amazingly massive!
Your talents have no end, I do enjoy seeing your sewing projects. Beautiful!

Stera the edging is 'gold bias binding so fabric. My hips ache a bit so a warm bath for me tonight.
Waddy: I have an even taller one called Calliope black stems and purple flowers and yes I have some muscles but they don't half ache tonight.
Thank you for the compliments Klahanie, Meadow and Kate.

That aster is truly amazing! I really like the chrysanthemum as it is such a lovely colour. Your sewing is also lovely and how rewarding to be able to do it. I am hopeless!!!

Goodness, what a lot of effort and perseverance! I hope you are recovering from the aches incurred.. A pretty chrysanthemum. And yes, "Garnet' is the best. I have it all round the borders, front and back.
Beautiful sewing. I hope you make lots of sales.

Surprisingly when I woke up I didn't ache at all. It was raining first thing so I nipped out for coffee with my eldest girls best male mate [he is going to be a bride's man at her wedding]. Back home now and the sun is shining so I will get out of my 'glad rags' and head off into the greenhouse.

I also have Penstemon George V another slightly redder pink one and it is just as good as Garnet Ange.

Lovely table mats & also liked your Aster, but wow, what a thug. Glad that you've saved a bit though & will watch it like a hawk!

You are brave to give a thug a reprive, but I can understand why, covered in those white blooms, must brighten a dull Autumn day.

they do add colour and height to the border and provide lots of pollen and nectar for late flying insects, the flowers positively buzz.

I'm trying George V for the second time, SBG. I didn't manage to get my last one through its first winter. Thanks for the info.

Fingers crossed for it then Ange.

Thank you Seaburn, but I am not sure where I could put them at the moment! The borders are full! I appreciate the offer.

well if you change your mind Rose just let me know.

Autumn puts on quite a show in East Yorkshire. I hope you are doing well Eileen. Those tableclothes are top notch and what an interesting shape. Almost impossible to find hexagonal at the shops.
