At long last quilt pictures

At Long Last Quilt pictures

and

wall hanging.

Spring time flies and with it time to sit and contemplate stays behind in winter memories.

I thought I had written in the last week but someone reminded me as I have been caught up in spring sprucing up and airing out.

As I promised,

Hunter's quilt   ********   Trip around the Universe pattern

There are little Harry Potter's in outer space and black cats, tractors, trains, bears,

tools and school supplies.

It is actually on top of a great quilt a friend recently made and gave us.

Also the wall hanging made with Mom's blue & red bias tape and yellow ric-rac. It added the perfect border and was handy and right there. The color matched perfectly.

My favorite is Number 9. (No not like the loser NY Gov).

Count first five then the next 4 on second row.

See the little rabbit in the space ship?

My theme wasn't intentionally outer space related, only subliminally and coincidentally.

There, Vista conquered and little plastic pieces with a million pictures stored on them.

Some day soon will seem crude and old fashioned.

Here is a wish for everyone (anonymous) everywhere and forever.

May all your joys be quilted

and

All your sorrows be patched.

Spring thaw

I don't want you to think the winter is still raging here.

Because it is not. The sap is finally running, the tulips and daffodils poking up and possums are breeding. The sun is warmer and kinder. The air is fresh and the birds are coming through and to this area. The frost has come out of the ground. We are thankful winter has receded for the most part.

Still a little snow teaser this weekend planned by Mother Nature. We will ignore it as irrelevant to our weekend plans of painting and resting and will probably watch the Last Waltz DVD again. Wow. It was so good way back when but now we can look back and see all of the artists in their absolute prime. Every one. I have yet to finish reading

Levon Helm's book

This Wheel's on Fire.

But what I have read is amazing and I want to savor every page. He has awesome talent and grit.

Hope your corner of the universe is as you wish and that peace envelopes the planet.

Do rent The Last Waltz and buy Levon's book.
