The last 3 panels are a local wildlife field, the Horse Chestnut soon to be felled and a plant I have seen everywhere alone the streets despite the drought.
Still no communication from Shanly, a blatant disregard for local residents.
They got hold of the keys and a builder moved it eventually.
Half the trees on the footpath felled without closing the footpath, nightmare for all but the most agile (I walked along about 4 times and they had to stop each time!).
Absolutely shattered and son coming for visit, not sure I can cope.
I was supposed to be doing an online thingy this week too but totally lost the plot these days.
My 200th post just happened to be when I first met up with our Helen. All the best for your operation Helen whenever it is....
Happy WOYWW Everyone.

Happy 900th WOYWW! You have been going for a long time on the blogs, it was fun to see your original table. I do love the tree you’ve done on the end of your living line, very appropriate seeing how you’ve done your best to save the local trees, so sad that they’re all going.
Hugs LLJ 5 xx
I love the panel from your living line. You’ve been sterling in trying to prevent the tree felling so it’s appropriate to see it as the finale of this line. Your crafts are such an inspiration.
Happy 900th WOYWW

Happy 900th BJ! Love that living line - sorry about the trees! The workmen seem pretty incompetent. Susan #14
Happy Week 900 WOYWW!
The gardener is trimming the hedges outside my window so hoping to sneak in while he has lunch. Toooo loud. BJ, I feel for you.
Love the Living Line, it's just stunning - and how fun your first 00 was a meet up with Helen. Fab.
See you for 1000...

Hi BJ, it's great to look back at what everyone's been up to. It's been fun to see so many past pieces of art work. Sending big woyww hugs, Angela x12x
Hi BJ. It's so lovely to catch up with you again after all these years. You sound like you have been going through it. Such a shame about the trees. I love your embroidery though. Happy 900th WOYWW.

Oh, BJ, I think you know how I feel about the felling of all those trees - it's criminal. I wonder if the developers have plans to plant replacement trees once the houses are up and finished. Your finished embroidery is stunning. The flowers in the photo look very much like the Evening Primroses that are growing by the railway station near me. I hope you have a great week and a lovely time with your son. Elizabeth x #27
Hi BJ, just popping in to say hello and wishing you a happy #900! It's always sad to see trees cut down! xx zsuzsa #23
It's so sad that you were not able to save those trees. It seems like we are witnessing a major wave of disregard for nature around the world these days. People are focusing on making money, their power, and having control, instead of the well being of others and of being good stewards of God's creation. However, I admire your courage to speak up, and your diligence to do all you could possibly do to stop. Anyway, that tree you embroidered to finish your living line is gorgeous, as well as a glorious tribute. Happy 900th WOYWW post, and may the peace of the Lord be with you, my friend!
Goodmorning! It's so good to 'see' you, you are the one that is always there and I somehow just relied on that. "there will be new participants, there will be ladies absent and I'll wonder where they went but "BJ" will defenitely be on the list!" And yes, here you are! I am looking for 'free/spare time' to visit some blogposts all through the coming days so by the end of the week I hope to have visit all desks on the list - as an 'old woyww-participant' I just wanted to celebrate this 900th anniversary so badly and it's so lovely to 'bloghop' to all the wednesday-desks again. It's good to see all the creativity that is still going on, and visit long-time-no-see desks/ladies! Congrats to you too for the 900th woyww, keep up the good spirit and have a nice weekend. Love from the Netherlands, Marit #24
I tried commenting several times yesterday but my comment refused to publish. Thanks for being a part of WOYWW. Happy 900th. Sarah
Oh BJ you have had a rotten old time of it this summer. At least the weather has calmed down a bit. So sorry to hear about all the destruction going on, it is truly heartbreaking.
love your embroidery piece - for some reason it made me think of the bayeaux tapestry - probably because it's been on the news.
Sending the biggest hug I can, lots of love Cindy xx #22
ooh it sounds like a rotten time and I bet the noise is SO hard to deal with too. Love your embroidery piece though, stunning. kyla
