Spring

has appeared in the garden, the blossom is coming out

the Weeping Flowering gum is flowering

The plum tree has blossom

the lavender has bees and blossom despite hubby's pruning attempts!!

I made a few Flying Geese last week
then as football was on went and made a few more after dinner

I passed this fairy establishment on my walk recently

We have had fine days

and not so fine days, typical spring weather. We had beautiful weather Friday, and Saturday so I spent time in the garden pruning and weeding, tiring but gives you a good feeling when you can see what you have done.

Yesterday I made some Kevin Koala's, might have to come up with some other names, Keith, Kobber, Kel, I need to think on that! Can't be calling them Kevin's all the time. This is a Wendy Gratz pattern from Happy Shiney People, I love Wendy's patterns,  they are so happy.

The quilts are finished and ready for delivery.

A few more hearts were sewn together last night

I nearly forgot last weeks Anthology block, I ended up making two. Double Spot above


and facets. I don't seem to have a photo f the Sylvia block so will fix that later. I am off to sew some details on to the Kevin blocks.
Happy stitching.

  6. So happy spring is springing for you. I spent quite a bit of time in the garden today, but I was planning what I will be planting for next year's garden!!!! It always fascinates me that we are on opposite ends of the seasons!!!

  7. Isn’t it wonderful watching the garden wake up, although yours is further advanced than ours. Your koalas are fun. Maybe there needs to be a Karen or Karla in the mix?

  8. You certainly don't waste any of your time, and love your Koala's, and your spring photos look great.

  9. The pictures of Spring are so soothing and the koalas make me smile :-) Koalas can be females so how about some girly names like Karla or Katie. Happy stitching indeed!!!

  15. Gorgeous flowering gum - reminds me a lot of the May Gibbs illustrations. Lovely block making and your Koalas are Kool. Yes, I agree about Wendi Gratz's designs, not that I've ever made one, always tempted though!
