It is a beautiful day here and supposed to get in the 70's again. I have been making more doilies and have started a symbol charted doily that my friend Pam is teaching at CB. I think I have got it but this is an easy pattern too.

I am going to see my friend Mo at the rehab place tomorrow she is doing pretty good after her stroke.

I want to get started planting flowers and my tomato patch but it has been so cool in the am's that I don't know if the ground has warmed up enough.

Our crabapple tree has been beautiful and so have the lilacs.

I am posting a pic of the tree I took last week.

The doily is called the Fan Doily and I got the pattern from Pam and the Piggyback is from Annie's Attic. They were both a lot of fun to make.

Now I am on to making a quilted cat wall hanging got my fabric today and will cut it out later. I haven't finished the SS yet but I will LOL.

I can't believe April is half over but am grateful is has been pretty nice but a little cool so far this week. The perennials are up and the trees are budded out. Spring is here!

Wow I haven't been here for a while. It has been sunny today after two days of rain. Our 20" snowfall melted fast and the yard was flooded finally dried out and now is flooded again.

I have been so lucky this week I received my doily actually two from Val for the swap and they are so pretty. She also sent me some other nice gifts. I didn't send her any extras so I felt kind of guilty. She has a lot of allergies so I didn't know what would be safe to send. She is the nicest person and I appreciate everything she sent.

I also won the bingo at the Mania and am expecting my prizes anytime. Kathy is so great with this I know she probably gets tired of doing it.

I went over to see my neighbor M who recently had a tumor removed from her brain. Thank God it wasn't cancer and she is doing so well. I haven't talked to her that much in the past but she is interesting to talk to.. She teaches flute and has 32 students.

I have been crocheting another thread potholder, an egg cover for an egg challenge and am going to start a chicken in yarn that sits on a pig. So cute. I don't know what I will do with it but I want to make it.

We will have Easter for DD on Saturday I have the ham already and still don't know what else we are going to have. LOL

I finished this bunny this week from Kristie's Kreations pattern.

We had snow again after a lot of rain yesterday on election day. There is a lot of flooding around even in our backyard.

I also made a small bunny for a pin doll swap and now will make something for St. Pat's day. Then I will be making a small doily for a swap at C'ville. She likes purple so that's what I will use.

I have joined the nicest forum called Sunbonnet Sue Chat. This is one of my favorite quilt patterns . The ladies there are so nice in welcoming me in there. I want to make a wall hanging for a I love my country challenge at CC.

I hope DD's sonagram goes well Thursday I know she is nervous about it.

Well I had a post all written out and it disappeared. The weather here is worse than it was in January hopefully spring in on the way and people can get out and about. I have been crocheting and making a doll for a challenge on CC and an egg challenge on FF. Also am going to make pindolls for a swap.

Pancho and Maggie are doing great. The cat is so much fun and is so sweet and affectionate.

I don't know what I would do without the computer it keeps me in touch with a lot of great people far and wide.

This doily is called Tiny Hearts and was a bear to block but is still pretty with the ruffling.

Here is the doily I forgot to add today.

Long time since I have been here. Have had some snow and cold temps but no big deal.
I finished my Valentine doily today and it turned out nice. I have been made a moderator at Crafter's Community and have been having a lot of fun with the girls over there. It is an old forum and they had asked me before to be a mod so this time I said yes. I have Cross Stitch and Embroidery and Computer Help. Don't laugh I can usually find something on line if they have a problem.
The cat Pancho and Maggie our dog are doing so good together. They play (the cat usually starts it) a lot and chase each other. Having Pancho has really changed our household we are laughing a lot more.
Went to Joann's the other day to get doll making stuff and they do not carry any of it. I was surprised at that since they have so much. I have made dolls in the past and am trying to start again. I like the cloth dolls the best. I have found a lot at Dollmaker sites for free patterns.
