Hedge

Bit cooler and cloudy this morning so took the opportunity to cut the front hedge, it is Escallonia sp.

By 10 am the hedge was done and so was I. I cleared up and pegged down some of the bits I'd left at the base of the hedge to try to thicken it up.

I've already taken some cuttings but every little helps, it looks OK when it is overgrown but very thin when I cut it :( The little bush right at the end is a bit I layered a couple of years ago :)

 The sun came out not long after I'd finished the hedge and the temperature soared again. 

I went to quilting class this afternoon and finished my maple leaf block. I'm getting better at making my corners meet :)
