As promised, here are some photos of my vegetable seedlings.

These are (from left to right) cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower.  The celery on the extreme right have yet to put in an appearance.

These are the first few beetroot seedlings.

I am hoping for great things from these humble beginnings.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

As part of my participation in Project 333, I emptied out my wardrobe a couple of weeks ago and looked critically at everything in there.  I have said several times before that I do not have heaps of clothes and accessories but I have been forced to consider every single thing in the cupboard.

One particular item which was carefully stored on the shelf was this carry-bag.

It was a hand-made gift and is a really useful size but the handles were not really practical for me, so I had only used it once or twice.  So I took another look at it and found that the wooden handles are easily detachable so that the bag can be washed.

I have taken the handles off and my plan is to remove the press-studs and make a patchwork handle/shoulder strap.  Once this alteration is made, I know I will use the bag all the time.

I searched through my stash of scraps and found these pieces which I think will work with the existing colours and patterns in the bag.

Project 333 Update

I have mostly been at home today so wearing an old pair of paint-spattered shorts and t-shirt.  When I went to the shops I grabbed my 3/4 black trousers, red/white 3/4 sleeve top and my trusty sandals – easy!  I can definitely see the benefits of a basic selection of clothes.  I am finding it relatively easy as most of my clothes are mix and match colours and styles.

Please let me know how you are going or your thoughts and ideas, even if you are not participating directly.
