Pretty blooms. The bit sounded good, you're doing fine :)

Darla said...

Your blooms are gorgeous and listen to you figuring out that banjo! Nice.

Dani said...

Thanks Chandramouli. I just keep on practicing.

Darla, it would go a lot better if my fingers would remember where they're supposed to go. :)

Erin said...

It is sounding great! Loch wants to play fiddle with you! :)

Dani said...

Come on over Loch!

How old was Loch when he started?

The hardest part for me with the banjo is wearing pics on my fingers. Y'all know how OCD I get with wearing jewelry! *shudder*

Erin said...

Loch just started last summer, so he was 7, right now he's mastering the standard "Bile them cabbage down" LOL! Ack, jewelry, me too! The girl that gets lessons right before Loch is always getting scolded by the teacher, she is about 16 and refuses to cut her nails LOL, we always walk in right about when the lecture starts :)

My Great Grandma played the banjo. My Gran has an old Supertone of hers they got from the Sears and Roebuck catalog...I keep saying I'd like to learn to play.

And just beautiful pictures!!!! I really do love this time of year.

Dani said...

Melissa, you should check out Cold Antler Farm Blog. There's about 20 of us taking the online lessons there.

I'm happy to report lilacs blooming!

Lorie said...

You are getting good, Dani. And, as always, beautiful pics.

Beautiful glowers and I just love the banjo!

MakingSpace said...

Gorgeous flowers - and you go with that banjo! That's some progress there - so fun!

Flower picker, banjo picker!

Dani said...

Shamy, Shamy, Shamy where are you?

Sharon Rudd said...

Thanks for my daily dose of inspiration, Dani!

Granny Annie said...

Hear that? It's me applauding you:)

Big Shamu said...

I'M HERE!!! Very beautiful flowers. You can send me seeds for any of those.

And what do I spy with my little eye.....why it's Skulls as a banjo strap. Did you clean out the fabric store of that particular fabric??

Dani said...

There's my girl!
I knew you'd notice the banjo strap! lol
No, but DAMN I wish I would have cause now I'm down to just a little over a yard left. *sniff* *sniff*

MakingSpace said...

OK I'm relieved now. I thought Dani was calling for the Silkie Shamy. Phew.

Dani said...

hehehe. I've been blessed these last couple years of having Shamy as a friend. When she doesn't pop up in the comments I tend to get a little nervous.

MakingSpace said...

Oh I hear ya. I did see that the Namesake Shamy hadn't checked in yet, but I was hoping the Silkie Shamy hadn't become a daredevil and climbed to some roof somewhere.

So we know where both human and feathery members of ShamyWorld are - this is good.

Dani said...

Yep, it's all good. :)

MakingSpace said...

Excellent! Now to find out if Silkie Shamy's a girl..

Dani said...

I know. She's so friendly and bonded with us. It's not gonna go over well if we have to rehome her.
