I Heart Spring

First off I have to say how excited I am that I was one of the lucky winners in Lurline's birthday giveaway! What a happy unbirthday gift for me! Thank you so much Lurline!


Finally starting to feel like I can shrug off the coldness of winter. I see peeks of blue sky here and there and 60 degreesF feels downright balmy right now. I know that the weather is fickle this time of year and I may have to grab my parka again before long but I am basking in "springness" right now. Time to break out the "I heart Spring" wall hangings. This one I have in my foyer
In hindsight, I would have placed the bottom heart upside down so the points would meet. If I make another (and I may since it is so cute!) I will do it that way.

This bigger version is hanging on the wall at the Weight Watchers' center in the next town of Reynoldsburg.
A quickie version that I sewed right sides together and turned instead of attaching binding.


This next little wall hanging is not in spring colors but I think it's springy with all the cute yo yo flowers.


I had alot of green fabric scraps from my green and white quilt so used them for the striped border as well as the 3-D leaves.

I found these cute ladybugs made from polka dot ribbon! Had to add a couple of them.

That's all for today! Talk at you later. Rumi

  2. I'm going to have to examine your topiary more closely next time I visit. I never noticed the lady bug. Happy Spring! See you Friday for tea and scones.
