Happy Spring

 Things have been buzzing around here and I'm

a little late in wishing everyone a happy spring.

 The Spring Happy Quilt

This is going to Alice who is the grand daughter of our

real estate agents.  Alice also has an American Girl doll.

 The back ... the butterflies have silver sparkles.

 This grouping of fabric was an 'impulse' purchase.

It was on the cutting table at a fabric shop in the Amish country.

The daisy quilt doesn't have an official home as of yet, 

but I may keep it since the Scottie fabric is not the 'best'

quality fabric and I'm afraid it may not last through

to many washing/drying cycles.

I ordered a new 'foot' for my Bernina after watching

a YouTube demo on sewing the final binding on with

the help of foot #71 ... so we'll see if it's as easy

as the quilter made it out to be.  You can't imagine

the 'feet' available for this sewing machine - Bernina

actually sells 2 books on the various feet and what they

do.  I'm lucky I can sew a straight line let alone

worry about trying to learn how to use all those extra feet!
