SPRING HAS SPRUNG

Yesterday I decided to drive down toward Columbia to look for a new kitchen faucet at a "Discount" Plumber Supply store. I grabbed my camera on the way out because everything is starting to bud out and bloom and I thought I'd get some pretty pictures to share. So here they are ---




Oh wait -- I left my stinking memory card in my computer. So much for showing off TN in the Spring.

My trip to the "Discount" Plumbing Supply store was a bust too. It's discount for people building a $300,000 plus house. I'm going to Lowes today:)

I'm working on an old unfinished project. It's a Jellyroll tote. You use strips from a Jellyroll to make it. It's turning out really cute.

It's one of those things that as I started it I didn't think I was going to like it that much so I put it aside but I need to learn to get past that and keep working because I usually feel that way at some point with anything I start and I end up liking most everything I make after it's finished. I did use some iron on fleece between the outside and the lining and then quilted it.The fleece gives it a lot more body than the lightweight interfacing the pattern suggested. I've got to get some 1" buttons that I can cover -- I have some but they are not big enough. Then It's just add the straps and the buttons and it is finished.
