Update: We have a winner! #15 Diane! How cute, she's even looking for taffy seeds! Corrie just barely got it. She's a little slow. She's having to slave over company.....ME. It's exhausting, I'm sure. Diane, pick out a favorite green fabric in the Quilt Taffy store and contact Corrie with your choice and address. Congrats!We were already to have a Farmer's Market giveaway today, but no harvest in site. Don't ask, supposedly some of it's coming. As with all gardens, some seeds don't germinate. Will it be a good harvest, we hope so. You don't need it yet. Confucious say: Good things come to those who work on other projects. Need any Ginger Blossom? :-) After calling ten times, I've been assured Pop Garden & Bijoux are coming. I better call again tomorrow. 
Today we're giving a yard away of any green fabric in the Quilt Taffy store. Leave a comment in regards to "what's growing in your garden?" Random drawing later tonight. International winners may choose a pattern of their choice up to $9.

In my garden, there grow tomatoes (and I LOVE the song about Homgrown Tomatoes by John Denver) and lots and lots of raspberries! Well, the raspberries are not ripe yet, but the first green ones are there...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway.

I have the tallest, greenest weeds in my garden! The only plant I don't seem to kill is the ones I don't want. Oh well, I'd rather quilt.

Nothing is growing in my garden because my Homeowners association forbids having one. I can't even do a container garden. I have to make do with going to the local U-Pick farm down the road.
ReplyDeleteWe have beautiful flowers--both annuals and perennials, but I don't take advantage of it after my morning coffee on the patio, because I'm either sewing, shopping for sewing stuff, or looking online for quilting patterns. I'm obsessed.
ReplyDeleteIn my garden there are straight neck squash, crooked neck squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, and banana peppers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway.
We have lots of flowers growing in our garden, and unfortunately, many weeds. No vegetables yet, because of deer and bunnies. Maybe next year we'll put in raised beds and a fenced-in garden!
ReplyDeleteIn my garden, well, it's not really my garden, it's the garden of my city apartment building, there are lots of flowers- roses, mainly.
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering me in the giveaway!'

Garden, what garden. Well, I would like to have one. I'm thinking of growing tomatoes and strawberries in pots. Those are the 2 favorites in our house! And I have to say, today's post was very clever. Love it!
ReplyDeletei don't have a yard or a garden. but every friday an organic farm is open to public between 3 & 6. they have the most amazing grown stuff that is just picked that morning. this farm is right in the middle of a residential neighborhood just outside of the city. you would never guess it was there if you drove by it.
ReplyDeleteIn my garden there are weeds galore and grass that's well overdue for a cut.
ReplyDeleteIn my garden we have cucumbers that should have been picked ages ago and purple and yellow beans!
ReplyDeleteOh, I so wish that I could have a garden. But, I live in an apartment. No green spaces for me. I dream of the day that I have my own yard and a garden. I have the best memories of picking such wonderful things in the garden as a child.
ReplyDeleteThanks!!!!

We have basil and oregano growing in our garden. I used the basil last week for the first time to make pesto-YUMMY!!
ReplyDeleteI am just a wanna-be gardener. Maybe one day. . . But, I do have fond memories of helping my dad in the garden when I was very young.
ReplyDeleteIn my garden there be lots and lots and lots of flowers, a few tomatoes (yum!), some jalapenos, basil, thyme, parsley, cilantro, dill, and spearmint. I think there is some fresh salsa in my future. Do you know where I can find taffy seeds? dlord(at)pinehurstpropertiesllp(dot)com.
ReplyDeleteI live in a small, city apartment so only some potted basil and lavendar growing at our house! Oh! and some red geraniums, too! :) Thanks for a great blog!

I am very talented at growing weeds. Thanks for reminding me that I need to get outside and weed some more (a never ending task).
ReplyDeleteI have some, um some, oh some...oh OK, I DON'T HAVE A GARDEN...I like to spread the wealth around, so I frequent my Farmers Market....
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the swing set and sand box initiated a hostile takeover of our veggie garden a few years ago, the tomatoes and zucchini were completely decimated. However the raspberries are tough little berries and are quickly regaining territory. You can now pick berries and swing simultaneously. So as far as edibles go, raspberries are all we’ve got. As for flowers, well we have hollyhocks, daisies, daylilies, purple coneflowers, blackeyed-susans, lavender and cosmos just to name a few. I guess you could say I have a weakness for all things pretty. Speaking of pretty, I LOVE that poetry quilt posted a few posts back. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything growing in my garden except, flowers. And it seems that I really have to struggle to keep them alive. I really don't know how all of you grow vegetables also.
ReplyDeleteJust a bunch of weeds in my garden! As my DH says, as long as they're all green, hopefully they just blend into the grass! Honestly, I'd rather quilt than garden! ;)
ReplyDeleteGarden? My mother in law gave us a potted hoya start as a house warming gift & it's bears mention that she has had the original plant alive for over 15 years. I tired my very best to take care of it, but alas, it died within 3 months... and I was proud to keep it for so long! So I imagine there is a lot of satisfaction to be had from growing an actual garden. I will never know the feeling. But, the thought has crossed my mind a time or two, to plant plastic foliage and zip tie those super-glossy & oh-so-fresh looking plastic fruits & veggies to my fake vines. If nothing else, I would have the best looking "garden" on the block! Oh well.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Love the little signs in the zukes. :) I am only growing flowers this summer. I have a pretty good crop of them too. All on my front porch area. I do have some fruit on the fruit trees out back and a loaded cherry tree in the front yard. Sew or pick and pit cherries??
ReplyDeleteTomatoes and peppers. Oh I love some of the fabrics in Farmer's Market, especially those apples and that orange print. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWe have one tomato plant which has quite a few small tomatoes. too many bunnies and deer for much else. Linda Gerig
ReplyDeleteThis is my first year with a vegetable garden - and things are actually growing! I have beans, peas, carrots, and some leek.
ReplyDeleteThe garden is yummy right now. The hydrangia are blooming, the grass looks pretty good. The front yard perrenials have started to bloom. Butterflies and birdies abound. The best part for me are the squirrels. They have declared a full on war with my husband. They stare him down as he shakes pinecones at them. Pretty funny. Thanks for the giveaway and your adorable way of making it special.
ReplyDeleteI have a few flowers left in my garden. Apparently many days of near or over 100 degrees doesn't make the flowers too happy!
ReplyDeletebecause of the drought here in Atlanta, the only thing growing outside is weeds. My inside garden is growing one sleeping baby and one fussy toddler! ...need a trip to the 'farmer's market'!!!
ReplyDeleteIn my garden I have tomatoes and strawberries. This was my first chance at even trying out a garden. I am happy to report that my tomato plants are very much alive, but have not produced a single tomato. The strawberry plant is also alive and HUGE. It has produced some strawberries, which our dog has managed to enjoy before the rest of us could!
ReplyDeleteWe have tomatoes, blueberries, sunflowers, mint and many, many weeds. Thanks for yet another great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis year we have tons of yellow summer squash, peas, watermelon, pumpkins, potatoes, strawberries, raspberries, and cucumbers. We posted a picture of our first harvest on our blog!
ReplyDeleteI have beans! Lots and lots of green beans!
ReplyDeleteWhat's growing in my garden? Well, at the moment I have sweet peas, roses, day lillies, agapanthus (apparently a weed in New Zealand!), and my sunflowers are on the up. Anyone tried gardening by the phases of the moon? I've heard it's pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Jan, UK.
No garden...city-dwellin' girl here. But, I hit the farmer's market down the block on saturdays when I can! BTW...total newbie to your site and love it! So fun!
ReplyDeleteIn our garden....hmmm, well it's the middle of winer here, but we have some rather green clover, a few dandelions, and some other unidentified, but still green weeds. Sounds so pretty doesn't it?!
ReplyDeletePop Garden - yay! i'm waitng very impatiently for that one. :-D
Nothing but weeds and some ugly shrubs growing in my "garden" but the one in my dreams is overflowing with wonderful tomatoes and all the other summer bounties ;)
ReplyDeleteLet's see. I have peas, corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, pumpkins and birdhouse gords. I also grew some herbs. Now I just have to wait PATIENTLY for it all to start producing.
ReplyDeleteWe are eating strawberries,
ReplyDeletecucumbers,lettuce, basil and of course zucchini both green & yellow. Still awaiting the ripening of the tomatoes to make the perfect salad!
just zucchini here too....
ReplyDeleteMy middle daughter & hubby have our garden. It's full of tomatoes, cucumber & okra; also lots of hot peppers. I get all I want with no work-how 'bout that?
ReplyDeleteIn my little garden, I have Tomatoes (of course) but due to the terrible June-uary we had here in Washington they are just starting to flower. We have sugar snap peas for snacking on YUMMY! Green beans that hopefully will make it to the table before my darling children eat them all, Cucumbers, Pumpkins, Strawberries, Raspberries and lots of flowers in my hanging baskets/planters! Libie

ME?!!! I never win anything!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Do you realize that you have just broken my "never wins anything curse"?
Hold on while I do a happy run around the office. Okay, that's better. I think I would like Heather Bailey Freshcut painted mums in lime green.
Ooooh, I am so excited! Hmmm, maybe I should buy a lottery ticket on my lunch break now that the curse is broken.
Thank you again so much!!!!!!!!!
Hope you guys have a great weekend!
