SPRING WORKS, et al

 

I made a set of "Hugs and "Kisses"
for Spring--still working on the 
borders...

and

I took out my "Button Baskets"
early to brighten up our
dining area...

The "baskets" are all scraps:
at "Gone 2 the Beach"
sent me that light blue/red one--
I had enough to use in two baskets...
:)))) 
Thank you Quilty Friend...

In here:↴↴↴↴
is a piece from my DH's pj's 
😁
that dark blue plaid--

and all the handles are from a very old piece
gifted to me from an older friend...
and
the buttons are from my Grand-mere's
button collection...
I really enjoy looking at this one...
*************************
"Late August" 
is a small flimsy
ready to be backed, 
layered, and quilted...
↧↧↧↧
I couldn't resist adding those
sunflowers--I felt it needed
this print--
I hope to find a backing and
layer this up this week...
**********************************

P I C O T E E 
continues to stun us with ever-more
blooms....
This one will come out in the
middle of those two layers

and...
yes, still more to come

At the 
"Tippity-Top"

I count TEN in all...
who would have imagined that
my "Ghostly" amaryllis would
be such a producer of
beauty?

**********************************
We have hit 60 degrees 
here this afternoon...
and Tom will be bbq-ing burgers
for us--what a treat....
those and tater tots...
will be our Sunday Special
today...

Hugs, Julierose,
