STRINGS IN SPRING--TRA-LA

          A lovely afternoon on our deck; leaves popping out, blue skies...aaaah
   Leaves not quite all out as yet--but Spring has arrived....;))))))
******************************************

                          40 X 40 "Spring Strings" is together....

I am thinking of borders to make it a decent lap size quilt   
Perhaps this??
                                 A light peachey color....

*********************************
And in here.....
My bunny Tin from Dawn--thank you again--I love it....so adorable...
     [let's not talk about what happened to the candies inside;000]


      Using my 4.5" foundation squares--that middle size now...4 of each...
working in 
single
colorways...↪↘
I have
still some more yellows left and some pinks; 
and
really, just a couple dark blues and very few greens, 
and a few rusty solids. They may end up in crumb squares...

So there will be more pinks and yellows made...
then I will go down to the last and teeniest size.

********************************
We have walked a mile for the past three days in a row on the 
neighboring Town's boardwalk; and this morning's walk 
was the warmest--
almost hot, as the wind was not off the water this morning...
AND.................
then, as we were out.....

We stopped at our new "Dollar General"  store: 

I  found clothespins, [Thom put up a new line for me this week]
Lavender soaps, 
and two large print puzzle books....👀👀 ;)))
************************************************
We decided to have our main meal this noontime--Thom
made his luscious sauce;
 and I had mine over eggplant with Mozzarella
--no pasta for me...trying to keep the carbs low...

And that has been our day....so far.....tonight will be Red Sox and hexagons...

Hugs, Julierose, La blageuse...(still stringing along-euse)
