Blooming this Weekend

So far February has been so warm and March is coming in like a lamb!!!  Everything we have in the flower garden is coming up or sprouting way too soon.  If March goes out like a lion we might not have any blooms for this spring left to see!!!

Lace Bobbins

I ran across these lovely lace bobbins yesterday at the Queen Bee Cottage blog and thought I just had to have some and this is what I've made today.  Love, love, love these!!!

Gorgeous!!!

I made mine 5" tall

card stock I just happened to have

I now have 8 of my own beautiful lace bobbins!

Now the trick will be to find where I've put my lace so I can wrap these lovelys.

Bella's Stocking & Turdie Quilt

I finally got the beading done on Bella's stocking and Mom sewed it all together 2 days before Christmas.  The same night I put the borders on Bella's Turdie the Turtle quilt and it is ready for quilting.  She was so excited to see them both!!

Finally it is done!!!   I've been stitching on this stocking for 3 years trying to get it just right and have finally finished it.  Now if only the Finishing Fairy would pop in and sew it together!

1st Pieced Baby Quilt

My first pieced baby quilt.  I had seen a picture of this so using 2 1/2" squares from a jelly roll I made my own.  I'm sure happy with it!!!

Finishes!!!
