"IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SPRING"

                           "I'M AS RESTLESS AS A WILLOW IN A WINDSTORM,
                                      I'M AS JUMPY AS A PUPPET ON A STRING....

                                    I HAVEN'T SEEN A CROCUS OR A ROSEBUD
                                                  OR A ROBIN ON THE WING...".....

Pansy update--just plunked up on my wall --waiting for Spring...working slowly on these
trying to pull fabrics that won't look different....

See this mess:
A pile of greens, purples and a few bright yellows and maroons...

the yellow ones ended up in itty-bitty blocks


I don't know if they will be incorporated in with the bigger ones or not yet....but I love their
Spring-like cheeriness...

enough with the snow and cold...it is raw and windy here AGAIN....especially in our
supermarket parking lot!!

"BUT I FEEL SO GAY, IN A MELANCHOLY WAY,
THAT IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SPRING..."

Hugs,
Julierose, La blageuse (dreaming of Spring-euse)

    Your sewing area looks remarkably like mine... Love your flowers, especially the golden ones.
    Our trees are getting really big buds... too early, I think. We could have many blizzards before they usually bud out. We are known for spring snow. (This next 5 days are supposed to be in the 40s. I can finally chip out the ice that has lived on our North sidewalk all winter... I hope. The sun doesn't shine there. Hope you get some early flowers.
    Hugs

    Yes, the blocks do say spring! Pretty blocks. No snow here and the weather is warming up to a high in the low 70s by the weekend. Wish I could share it with you to help speed the process of spring.

    It's always good to have a peek at the quilting area of other bloggers, and to see that there are piles of fabrics on the table! The feeling of Spring is definitely there in your blocks - perhaps it won't be too far away for you now.
