Blessings of Spring

Look what I got in the mail.  When I saw this on Shabby Fabrics website   http://www.shabbyfabrics.com/
I knew I just had to have it.  But I am thinking of doing this in 1930's reproduction fabrics.  I am not sure when.  Today is such a blah day and my email is acting up.  The weather is so gloomy here but no rain.
 

Yesterday I had lunch with Sharon.  We went all over town thrifting.  I found these wonderful feed sacks.  I just love when I stubble upon them.


We went to our local quilt shop and I bought a few 1930's reproduction prints to go in my stash.


Thought I would show you my Grape Ice Day Lillie's.  It seems like they are the last to start blooming.  I have them mixed in with yellow Day Lillie's.


Hope everyone got to see the beautiful Royal Wedding yesterday.  Such a fairy tale.  I just love it.

Hugs,

    I love that pattern and I also think it would be wonderful in 30's fabrics.

    Donna,
    I have intended to order the same pattern. I love it! I intended to order it last week! We are thinking alike ;) I think it would be great in 30's fabrics.
    I can never find feed sacks! I love yours.
    I love the name of the lilies and so pretty!
    Hugs,
    Donna

    The pattern is very cute and will look fab in 1930's fabric! I also enjoyed the royal wedding, very personal I thought not stuffy like his parents wedding.Boy I wish we had feed sacks like that in NZ!
    Happy stitching, Michelle.

    I like your Dresden Plate quilt it turned out nicely. Your new pattern is a little beyond my skill level. Your plant is gorgeous. I can't wait until I have a yard again. Great thrift shopping.
