Tulip Love

We are still in the midst of the house renovations, so sewing time is still limited. HOWEVER! I can't resist loving the colors of spring. This tulip is from a bunch I bought for the office. Fresh flowers just make us smile and these beauties have been slowly revealing themselves all week.

The house is looking fabulous! We had the ugly green tub reglazed white today. We are going to change out the ugly green toilet for a fresh, new white one tomorrow. While it has been hard to go into the office and work for 8 hours, then come home and work for 3-4 more, I know it is going to pay off. This house is beautiful and it will be ready for the next family to come in and love it as much as we have. I hope we can find something just as nice in our new town! And I greatly anticipate getting back in the sewing room in about a week or sew, oops, I mean a week or so! Kinda Freudian, huh?

Whats blooming in my yard

We had perfect weather this past weekend. Sunny skies, 70 degrees. And my yard is coming to life!
White violet

Violet

Pink hyacinth

Grape Hyacinth

Dandelion

Cherry Blossoms

Camellia
No, I didn't plant any of these! My plantings are later in the season! But I am lucky to have these in my yard. We are expecting freezing temps and possible snow, so I am glad I snapped these for posterity.

WOW Great TED talk

Bold Glory FINISHED

overwhelmed

I have a chest cold, a house in the middle of up-dating (to put on the market), I haven't had time to quilt and it has been cloudy and rainy forever. Okay, now breathe.

Seriously, I have coughed way too much. Each hack explodes in my temple.

I did get the hall bathroom papered. It looks great, it will be awesome when complete. But I am not doing any home renovations tonight. I am vegetating in front of the TV. I am binding a quilt and I am going to bed early.

Maybe the sun will be out tomorrow.
