Well, Spring has finally come.....


and I have managed to plant a few flowers and my Saskatoon berry bush on the side of my house. I was going to plant a Blueberry bush but the greenhouse didn't have any... so Saskatoon's it is! We are supposed to be getting some very warm weather in the next few days so hopefully the plants will grow and I can plant my large planters.



I have received a couple of cute blocks in two swaps I am in. The star block is so cute - it is strawberry and broccoli fabric..... I had requested that my star blocks be "scrappy" so I am going to have quite a collection when the swap is done.

The pink and brown block will be added to my collection and I should be able to make a pink and brown quilt by fall.

Spring.........


Today we got out the chairs and sat out by the lake..... and set out the patio furniture on the deck. As you can see... we still have a small "glacier" on the lawn - LOL...... shouldn't be there for long. I cleaned up my sewing room today, studying for an exam, took Magpie for a long walk......... AND made a quilt back..... sheesh (as a dear friend on mine says - LOL)..... it is spring....
