I would love for you to join me (a retired senior)in my zany crafting adventures with quilting (waaaaay too much fabric); scrapbooking (will I ever catch up?); redwork; counted cross stitch; crossword puzzles; reading; and cooking.

FLOWERING, et al

 
My big front-yard Iris
in bloom...

It smells like grapes;)))

Also my Rhodie has begun
its yearly plethora of
flowering
↓↓↓↓↓
I do like this color bloom...
Almost a lavender-pink-ey hue...

Looks like Spring has begun here...
Pretty hot today, but not the 
scorcher they predicted..

************************
My Fabric Journal "Beautiful Bird
and Favorite Color" page is
finished...
Flying away home...


Some beading and some 
wayward French knotting...
to add some interest
and a bit of lace at the bottom...

I kantha stitched this little bit of 
binding on the 
edge also...
All the fabrics in this series are raw edge...

This has been my favorite prompt so far...
We have one more for
 this group of
pages in this style...

This has been a lovely Sunday--hot, but not humid;
we are sitting out on our deck after our
bbq hot dog and potato salad
welcome to Spring dinner...

Hugs, Julierose,
La Blageuse
