melted, no rain or wind, skies are blue and temperatures
are climbing upward. Perfect day to play with a friend...
after work that is.
My friend came down from Logan and we went
shopping for our "Snowbound" (http://bunnyhillblog.com)
BOM background fabric. The fabric line (Rural Jardin by
Moda) just arrived at our local quilt shop and I can't believe
how fast it is flying off the bolts. Need to get some fat
quarters for future projects. The fabric and designs are
absolutely beautiful!
We also spent time laying out our "ATisket A Tasket"
(http://bunnyhillblog.com) blocks with fabric we have been
collecting. Think we've made some fun selections.
And, since my sewing machine is being serviced, perhaps I
can get one block started and also work on some stitchery
projects that have gone by the wayside while I have been
busy finishing my "Dutchman's Puzzle" quilt. I need to
have the sashings and borders on so my friend can take it
back to NE the first of May and quilt it for me.
I love this change of weather, but in some ways I'm a little
sad to see the winter leave because it means that I'll be
outside more. Find I just can't be in the house when the
weather is nice. And, yard work is calling me. Will have
to make sure time is set aside for sewing and stitching.
May have to take my sewing machine out on the patio and
work on projects instead of hibernating down in the basement.

Sounds like it was a fun day with your friend and with doing some quilt work--can't think of a better day--unless it was playing with that new grand baby!!!
