Which Came First?


Some new Judie Rothermel fabric to add to the stash. 
Chicks, eggs & cute chickens...what could be better?
There is some little chick fabric on pastels I'm on the hunt for. 
Haven't seen it anywhere. 
If you happen to have some 
Authentic Prints by F+Z for SSI C1920's-1940's 

I'd GLADLY swap for some.


Thank you & Happy Sewing, 
Heather

Sure Signs of EARLY Spring

 
Those are buds!?! Yes, daffodil buds close the warm brick and flowers blooming as they come up in the smaller photo on the left...first I've seen this early in the 15+ years I've lived in this state. Southern Spring, here we come!!
Just when you think it's IMPOSSIBLE to see tulip tips in February in Chicagoland....Taken 2/29/2012. I'm speechless.

Have a wonderful, warm weekend.

I've Never Seen the Berry Patch Like This

It's so hard to believe that the strawberry patch is as green as it is. 
This photo was taken 2/29. That's right.February and our strawberry patch is green....the only brown in it this year 
is from the leaves trapped by the plants since fall. 

Best believe the munchkins are counting down until we have 'real crepes' again, filled with freshly picked berries. That's a family fave!

We'll have more garden greenery for you shortly.

Purple Skirts All Around

I whipped up a couple of matching skirts for 
munchkin & me. 

Purple is after all, THE it 
elementary school color...
plus it's 'twirly'.

 It doesn't get much better than that.

Mom can do no wrong 
{today}.

Enjoy your weekend,
Heather
