APRIL PROJECTS--SO FAR----

 Hello April--


I did this, whole 12 month series, and this one --is one of my favorites--!!!

I guess we will do quilt-y things first--

I have gotten this months BOM on the Country living project finished-

there was 2 blocks--the sheep and the embroidery block-both were enjoyable to do--I did get a bit colorful on the flowers--though???

And Pink is the color for the month--so here is some of my jewels in the pinks--
first up is some 'fussy' cut ones--the two flower ones on the bottom is from a piece of fabric my friend, Anne, in NY sent me in her letter this week--and I noticed-- in laying these out to photo that I believe I could sew these together with a filler piece-- instead of having them with rows upside down like in the pattern I had seen--Hummm?????????????



And here is lots of hearts --in pinks--all shades of pink---

and my 'other' self--the one who loves fabric and spending money--did a couple fabric orders this month--


These are fabrics for the second BOM-I and doing from Attic Heirlooms --the top piece and last  piece are not from the line that the others are from--oh, and maybe the couple browns--???  This is suppose to be a quilt as you go project--so I needed to get my fabrics so I can start on that part--the blocks for #1 & #2 are all embroidered--am working on #3!!

And here is '7' Tilda fabrics that were on sale for only less than $10 a yard--good sale--I got half yards of these to make some Grandmother garden flowers to go with some I already started in the hexagons--

Remember these--felt I needed more 'color'--at least that is what I am telling myself--to justify the order!!!!

And my purple pansy is so pretty--


Doesn't this one's center look like it is lit up???

And I did get to go to a Thrift shop last week--


I lucked out and found 3 of my mini cup and saucer sets--the one with the little bird on it had a tag that said 'Dayspring' on it--also the basket in the back is new-

picked up these two items--love the little white basket--


And this heavy glass dish--I seen it yesterday on facebook-- I seen a gal in a thrift store find this same one--and there was a 2nd piece--a creamer--so this must be  a sugar bowl--now to find the creamer to go with it--they were both on a glass tray too--!!!!

I bought this new at Beall's--went to wash it and discovered a sticker on the bottom saying--Made in china-contains lead--what--I was gonna drink out of it--would of taken it back --but decided to keep--can you tell me why?????(answer--it's pink and has roses!!!!)


And here is my Easter decorating for this year--plus some rabbits on my desk--Easter just came too quick for me this year--I did have some plans--but at least most of my 'favorite things were out!!  And I am keeping them out for awhile longer--I can do that--right????

I have lots of projects in the works--hopefully next week I will have some more to share with you--

KEEP THINKING GOOD THOUGHTS AND PLANNING THAT NEXT STITCHING PROJECT AND THIS TIME OF THE YEAR--GARDEN --PLANS ARE AT THE TOP OF THE LIST--
ENJOY AND HUGS, DI
