Welcome Spring






I love being able to go out to the yard and pick flowers for the house. The camellias and daffodils are always among the first flowers blooming each Spring.




On a stitching note, I have gotten a bit more done on the handquilting of the 4 patch baby quilt......it really won't take too much longer to finish the quilting.




I have also been hard at work on the Thangles sets. I am now up to date on both sets..............7 blocks made this week. The blocks on the left are 6 months of blocks from Little Quilts (I am making one per month); the blocks on the right are from Heritage quilts, and are three months worth of blocks (I am making two per month). Obviously, the program at LQs started before the other one. Both are quite different, but are the same size, using the same patterns. I like them both.
I have got to get busy on my rug hooking over the w/e, as I have my class in Athens on Monday. I have been so busy trying to catch up on my quilting, that I have neglected my rugs.
So many projects, so little time. If only I were rich and didn't need to work for a living!!!
Off to bed........

Your flowers are just beautiful. Daffodils are so cheery. What is in with them? Are they rosehips or berries they look fantastic.

Love the quilt blocks and the colors are glorious - they are "my" colors. The camelias and daffodils are just beautiful together - what a lovely bouquet.

The blocks are coming along beautifully. I know what you mean about "never enough time". We want to do it "all".
Love the flower arrangement.

I love your blocks and I am sooooooooo jealous of your flowers! gorgeous! I keep checking to see if my daffodils want to peek out, but they are convinced that it's not warm enough yet. sigh
