Let's Book it project for March

                                                       
It is close to the end of March and I am happy , why because that means we might just get some spring weather .We just came through two days of dreadful weather , a severe spring storm that would match any or even out do most we had this winter . We got dumped on big time but the wind was the real factor , do you know how hard it is to sleep with 100+ hr. winds howling outside your window :-) My son who lives in Cape Breton experienced winds that exceeded 150 km. hr. , I can't even imagine that . Anyway onto better things like a finish for March .
 I am joining in with Sharon for the Let's Book It event and what a wonderful idea this is . For this month I chose a pattern from this  Primitive Quilts magazine which was a spring of 2013 issue.

 I adore these magazines , so many projects I would love to make but this time around I chose this little spring hanging for my table stand which I have shown in previous posts in various stages .
Here is the pattern in the magazine ,
Here is my completed topper , I just love it , a cute little spring quilt to brighten an area of my home . I will be linking up with Sharon today for this months event. Thanks Sharon for inspiring me to get those books and magazines out and actually use them ;-)
 Thanks for stopping by today and I hope your day is extra special.
hugs Sheila

    The 'Book it' idea is a great one! Love your Spring mini, hopefully those storms are gone for the season and you will only have lovely spring weather to enjoy from here on in.

    that's really cute Sheila. I have picked up a couple of these magazines in town here and have thought Sheila would love these projects lol.... I have some wool now but have yet to do anything with it .... you do inspire me to give it a try.

    boy those winds so deadly. I would be sitting there praying the roof would hold.
    Your mini is gorgeous.
    great idea to use magazines that may be a little forgotten.

    It looks great Sheila. I was actually looking at that design yesterday. I am looking forward to seeing what the spring 2014 issue has in store. I hope spring comes soon for you.

    even though i read your blog often Sheila, I thought I should really comment and say hi! What better time to tell you that I love your mini quilt. So happy and cheery. Hope you get better weather soon.

    That is a sweet topper. Those winds sound wicked. Primitive Quilts has such lovely projects, and you did a beautiful job on one of them.

    Very pretty topper.

    Spring is windy here, but not as windy as you've had!

    Love your mini! I bought that magazine just for that pattern, but it's still stuck in the book. Glad you survived the storm, and I hope Spring really does come this time.

    It's a beautiful mini and should inspire Mother Nature to get a wriggle on with it!

    Yes, that was quite the wind storm. I think we should send Spring a postcard and invite it to Nova Scotia! Your little topper is just the cutest. Great idea to use our books and magazines.
