Hello Spring

 Some spring days are so uplifting and perfect...even though it can easily turn chilly and wintry again those special days are a real treat.........we've had a few of those lately here.......and picked a few flowers from the garden to enjoy indoors...........

 .............i have opened the creaky old door of the potting shed again ready for the new season's gardening......and i took a few pictures there of my new quilt....this is the little apples quilt that i showed recently as a work in progress.....

 ...............it's a cot or lap size quilt and made with tilda apple butter fabrics and some ticking fabrics for contrast......

 ............there are apple appliques added to the squares here and there and along the top border....
this little quilt pattern is now available in my etsy shop..........

 ...........some floral pickings from the cutting garden this week matched the colours in the quilt.......

 ..............lovely to see tiny cowslips blooming again..........

 ............here are some button house plant sticks amongst the hyacinths and tulips....

 .............they are a nice touch to add to a plant or floral gift or a new home present....the little tag is one of a set designed for me by my younger daughter who is a graphic designer.....

 ..............below are two more little houses with matching flowers............these were the plants that we bought at the garden centre last week.........

 .............and a quick picture in the greenhouse where things are growing fast......

 ..............a little spring flower flat lay picture..........love all the pretty little blooms which are so fleeting that it's nice to capture them like this.............thank you for your visit here dear readers and for the kind comments you leave me............wishing you happy sunny days this week and lots of crafty inspiration....................back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
