hello farmgirls! Spring has sprung and I love being in my craft room with lots of light! I have been jumping back and forth with some sewing and some scrappin. I also repaired a candle holder, finished a floorcloth, finished a tooth pillow and a little stuffed bear.
What in the world are you working on?

Yesterday was so warm. I was inspired to make a new skirt!! Oh, I love it, big flower print with a small print on the bottom ruffle. Yup, spring requires at least one new skirt.

Darning and mending as part of my "spring cleaning"...finding all of Jus's shirts that are missing buttons, sewing them back on (he never tells me!), and doing the same for my stuff...pearl buttons on spring cardigans, etc...taking a break on indoor sewing and knitting projects for outside :)

Clare and Jonni- Great to hear what you are working on! I love being outside so I am glad my craft room is in the garage cuz I open the big door and I feel like I am working outside. That skirt sounds cute Clare- I wish there was a place we could see stuff after we finish it!

I am making a pillow for my daughter's birthday. If you have MaryJane's Stitching Room book you may remember the basket pillow made of yoyos. My hands are not co-operating at the moment so I am making a smaller version, but I think it is going to look swell anyway. I'm also trying to get started on the spring mini=aprons. Sewing is very therapeutic! Karin

I was doing some crochet, but I'm kind of in between crochet projects at the moment. I'm looking at my garden, just looking at it for now... :) A little scared to go out there and start, because it needs some serious cleaning. I'm in the Northeast, so it's just getting to be gardening season, just.
I loved reading the above to see all the different types of projects, it can be any of many different things that makes us happy.

I am hand quilting a feedsack quilt, finished the main part of the top, am down to the border now, all pinks and greens. On the side, am hand piecing my first Christmas quilt, the border being the blocks I got in the winter block swap here on the forum. . It is hot here in Kuwait, the days averabe 102 F and the night about 80, I've planted rosemary and mint and basil, the basil is already in bloom... Corinne

I have been making Nora some dresses. She now has 2 cute "Made by Mommy" dresses! I will take pictures as soon as the other comes out of the wash cycle.
