Some randomness....

Still not much sewing...


except this bee block for Rene!


I found this "S" in a library book I borrowed...


How appropriate!

I did visit the Spring Hill Peony Farm on Saturday....



Is it a 'selfie' if someone else takes the photo?

 


With a visit to The Crafty Squirrel on the way home!


Lots of prettiness to look at!


And my sister shared this with me this week...



We all need a puppy like this in our life!

Enjoy!

Great post! Your block for Rene is beautiful! After making one, I want to make an entire quilt! Your "selfie" is lovely.

Gorgeous block! Such great fabric combinations. Will make an amazing quilt.

Oh, a peony farm!?! Wow. I LOVE peonies!!! Can I be a little jealous you didn't take me with you. ;o) Enjoy that beautiful bouquet you gathered.

OPQuilt said...

Fun bee blocks! I really enjoyed Rene's turn at the bee--so easy and such a fun punch of color. Okay, I confess. I watched the whole Jesse the Dog video and smiled my way through it. What a great little dog and an excellent trainer! Thanks for posting that.

Peonies are one of my favorite flowers ever, but they don't grow well here because our climate is too temperate. How lovely to see you in amongst all those lovely blossoms. Beautiful.
