Welcome to April. Can you believe 1/4 of the year has gone by? Unbelievable. When I turned my working calendar over here is what greeted me. It made me smile.


I absolutely love the sentiment. Maybe that will be my new theme, motto, or saying. Do you like it as much as I do? I am glad I get to look at it for a month. I also love the flowers and the color. For April Fools day we had snow. It melted by the end of the day but it was a joke on us all.

Spring is just about here. My pansies are looking good and my daffodils are just about to bloom. The tulips have green leaves up but no buds yet. I love the anticipation this time of the year brings.


This past week I managed to get the 48 stars pieced that are in the border and Sat. I put it up on the design board and start sewing the blocks together. The angle of this picture is wonky because there is about three feet between the board and my sewing machine. I store my board until I need it then it come out into the only place available in my sewing room. This also gives me incentive to get the top put together fast.


I hope you have a meaningful Easter and a great week of sewing up your stash.
