A SPRING TABLE TOPPER

What fun it has been to complete this small wallhanging or table topper! I sandwiched it last evening and will begin to quilt it later toay. The timing was just right - I completed it as an entry in the fiber arts category in an upcoming Lavender Festival and also have used it to design a project to showcase learning design skills on my teaching site http://www.simplequiltmaking.com . Just now, my huge old lilac bush outside my front door is blooming and the lilac/lavender and deep green is so much like the little quilt top. All I have to do is glance up out the screen door while I'm working to see this wonderful sight. I love spring, but there hardly seem enough hours in the day to get everything done, indoors and out at this time of year. I must guiltily admit to being behind both on posting and reading my fave blogs. Will try to get caught up this weekend!
Hope you all have a busy and happy weekend.

Thanks for visiting my blog. I'll be sure to post pictures of the Maine cottage when I get back. It has a million dollar view so I like taking pictures there.
