About Me

My photo
Annie
Ballarat, Victoria, Australia
Hi, my name is Annie, and I'm an avid gardener and a passionate sewer. I love love love fabrics of all kinds and see beauty everywhere, especially in my garden. I love to watch things grow and nurture them along with kindness and encouragement. I am a school teacher by trade and enjoy my job very much. It's tricky to find time to do all the wonderful things that I am interested in but where's there's a passion, there's a way!
View my complete profile

Welcome to my Flower Garden

I like the idea of having a place to share and show and tell and learn and get inspired with like minded people. In my other life I teach 8 and 9 year olds the 3 R's in Grade Three. I enjoy my day job very much and love my hobbies with a passion. I feel very lucky to be able to say that. I hope I will be able to inspire others with some of the things I like to do. Come and walk with me in my garden
