Sunday fun..........


I pressed my Hugs and Kisses pink baby quilt top yesterday.  It is 40" square.  I won't quilt it until next month because I already have a line up for this month's finishes.







This is the group of sewn squares so far for the second pink quilt and I will need to sew a lot more.







I cut a new batch of triangles yesterday.  If I cut more they will be duplicates of some that I have already used.  I just need to make a decision if this is a medium size child's quilt or an adult throw quilt.


This is the pile of dead Goldenrod stalks that I broke off and took to the weed pile.  I pull all of the Goldenrod that I see coming up in the spring but there still is a lot of it that sneaks in and blooms in the fall....which makes more Goldenrod the next year.


I think I have mentioned before that my Rose of Sharon is coming up everywhere.  This is what 1-3 year growth looks like on about a hundred new volunteers.  A lot more of them were behind these but I cut them off at the ground when my painters were coming last fall to do the window trim.


The Easter Bunny stopped by yesterday to leave me some flowers and chocolate.  I ate 2/3 of the chocolate bunny - 280 calories and I loved every one of them.

  2. I've been enjoying your pink hugs and kisses project. I never would have expected you to have so much variety of pink in your stash. (I would have eaten the whole bunny.)

  4. I have a Rose of Sharon that has been growing from a rooting that my sister in law gave me from her large plant I would say 3-5 years ago - it has some flowers the last two years and is getting quite a bit taller now this year - I haven't seen any volunteers but will keep watch for them as I do not want more in the area that I have it

  5. Wanda, you are so computer savvy, I would have been surprised if you couldn't hook up your new modem. Happy you got it all set for another post.

    Your pinks are so refreshing and yet so sweet, like a pink grape fruit ..... X & O's looks perfect for baby. And your squares are adding up to another pink perfection.

    Easter bunny left you a lovely bouquet and delicious chocolate.
