So Cuuuuute !!!

Stopped by Springbrook Farm, on my way home from The Quilted Crow yesterday, to buy bread and found some really sweet glass pedestal salts.   In my mind I saw a pin cushion.  Went home and put it together.... 



My 45mm my rotary cutter is next to the pin cushion, so you can see how tiny it is.   Those are little 3/4" applique pins.  The little salt is 2 1/4" tall and 1 3/4" wide.   Tiny.
Soooo cute !     Wha'd'ya think ?     Should I go back and buy more ?

And sew on...

Rambling Around Crystal Creek

The calendar says it's Spring and the thermometer has hit 60 degrees the past few days, but we still have snow...



We know it's Spring because the neighborhood bear is awake and remembered our bird feeder:



It must be Spring because the "crazies" are out and keep hitting the tree:



And there are a few rogue crocuses (crocui sp?) - this one in the woods:



But there's snow chilling the rhododendron and azaleas:



Two weeks to Easter, so have decorated a bit to make it look Springish:


Hoping you all find the warmth of Spring if not in Mother Nature, in your heart...

And sew on...
