This is my personal favorite as far as flowers go.

I did it a couple of years ago already, but it's still my #1!

This was sort of a "design as I go" painting, the sheep were an
after thought, but they were the "fun"  part.
(sadly this picture did not photograph well,
 it is actually much brighter)

Patchwork Quilt in the "making"

Winter gets a person into creating warm things.
And ya, wool quilts are warm.
This quilt when it is done  . .  consists of 800+  5" squares
each of which is made up of  approximately 9 squares.
The fabrics have been collected for many years, ( eg 30+)
of sewing.
There is a bit of "memories" in each square.
My goal is for it to be reminder of days gone by, plus
 serve a useful function. 

Scroll to the bottom picture and then up,  to see how
the mess of squares were rearranged to create 
a generally pleasing appearance (in my view).
 . . .  now on to sewing all the bits together, then adding
wool batting and "quilting" it.
 . . . .It may be quite a while to completion . . . 
will post once done.

This is a sure sign that spring is happening . .  beware 
there may still be "bumps" along the way.
