*Early Spring*

I've put out some of my favorite early spring decorations.
Celebrating the yellows and greens of the season.
Neither my husband nor I are Irish, but it seems that here in Chicago, we all celebrate St. Patricks Day.
These beautiful cross stitch designs are by Tanya of The Sampler Girl.
The potted daffodils were a class with Maggie Bonanomi years ago. They've held up well through the years.
I wish that my outside bulbs looked as nice :) but they are only up an inch or two. This one is faux, but I thought it looked so real.
Another favorite design by The Sampler Girl.
(It's a free pattern that you can find here.)
I've put my bedcover aside for a bit...
I really want to finish up this project:

Hopefully I will have a finish to share soon :)
"He made the moon to mark the seasons, and the sun knows when to go down."
"I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live."
~Psalm 104:19,33-34
Blessings, Patti
