Is it spring yet?
How have you all been? I hope this greeting/post find you all doing well.
Isn't that a beautiful flower y'all. I captured this pic one day in April while it was raining here in the dessert. I hope this spring flower with it's April rain will brighten your day. Hope I am not too late.
Okay! I believe this is where I fell off the blog scene; somewhere in April. I did not go away intentionally. I have been well, just awfully busy. For you all that inquired about me, just want you all to know, I truly appreciate it. Sincerely.
Alright! I will spare all else the details and get about our business.
Not very much to show for the amount of time I was absent. However, here is what I was able to squeeze in.

Sometime in May, I was just out of steam. I consulted with my bag of tricks (UFO pile) and I felt like the little engine that could. I wanted to do a quilt, so here is my UFO quilt.

Hi Jackie!!! Nice to see you back to your blog. I know all about busy but busy is good. That means like is moving along in a blessed way. I love seeing what all has been keeping you busy too. Lots of beautiful things but I must note that absolutely adorable and cheerful skirt! Love the doll quilt too! And the stitching...well, everything!
I have a rose that looks like that. It is the Edith Holden rose which a friend of mine's mother was able to get for me in a special nursery. Edith Holden is a favorite artist of mine and I just had to have the rose named after her.
