did i really turn last summer’s garden into a wild stitched memory?

Last summer, my backyard was a total mess of tomatoes, sunflowers, and way too many weeds. I spent every weekend pulling, planting, and sometimes just sitting in the dirt with my coffee. It was chaos, but the good kind. I started snapping pics of the wildest blooms and scribbling notes about what actually survived my forgetfulness. This year, I decided to stitch those memories into a giant fabric collage. Every petal and leaf was a reminder: water early, mulch more, and don’t stress about the bugs. I realized the best gardens are a little wild and a lot forgiving. Now, every time I look at my stitched garden, I remember that the messiest corners grew the best surprises. #gardening #diyprojects #summervibes
