Breezy


Would you just look at how green the grass is right now? I have been sewing bindings on quilts from the back porch for the last three days. Just soaking up sun, and birdsong and Springness. I know that's not a word, but it just feels like Spring right now. I watched a scrub jay break small twigs off my Red bud tree for his nest, and fly off with them. What's up with that? He couldn't find any on the ground? I bet it's the same bird that killed one of my baby chickens. I'm keeping my eye on him.......

Anyway I always find it more interesting to take pictures of quilts when the wind is blowing. I kept waiting for it to fall off the fence and into the dirt but it held fast.
As I put the last few stitches in, I knew this one was destined to go back to Canada with my Aunt and Uncle. I'm hoping they have room in their suitcase. We really had a good visit, and I'm not sure when or if we can all be together again. Giving them this quilt feels like I can send a part of me home with them.
Hope you get some sunshine this week!
