Works in progress

It is a gorgeous day here , the sun is shining and it feels a little like spring , not too cold , just fresh so..... I decided to head outside with my camera to take this photo shoot as the quilt was too large for the design wall .

 Hmmm , did I ever tell you I live in a windy spot , it was virtually impossible to get this quilt to stay flat, the wind kept picking it up and you can see some snow has flicked up on the quilt too, so I decided to take one on the railing  to see how that would go .

So this is my sampler quilt I have been working on for quite some time and I am down to doing the applique on the border ,almost home ;-)This quilt is a pattern called Simple Country Sampler by the Rabbit Factory ,I added an extra row to make it longer and I am really pleased with the outcome.

You can see that we still have snow , a few bare spots on the field but still plenty of the white stuff around , surely spring will arrive soon .
Want a sneak peak of my quilt guild challenge? Remember I told you our president wanted us to do something with a watering can since she is an avid gardener , well this is what I have done .

Oh sorry, I guess you thought I was going to show you the whole project but this will give you an idea of what I am up to, after all a garden isn't much without flowers . This was a real fun little project  , so you will have to keep an eye open for the big reveal.

I also want to share this really cute postcard that arrived in my mailbox yesterday , I had signed up for a landscape exchange and this is the first one I received , one more to come.

This delightful little card flew in from Colorado , thanks to Cassie for this amazing card ,I love it !
What are you up to today ? I hope you are enjoying some great weather and doing something creative , being creative is what keeps me happy and I am sure it is also true for you . Thanks for the visit and be sure to take time to create today .
