.....loving choosing the fabrics for the backgrounds and the hearts....lots of pretty scraps to delve into....
......helped along with nice cups of tea and the first mini chocolate eggs of the new season.....
.....another pretty little thing i'm enjoying is this sweet little pink packet of clover pins......these are my favourite pins to use and they look so pretty too......(mine were from rose garden patchwork).....
........and flowers...this week we have primroses in various shades to enjoy in the house......
..........and perfect snowdrops on our walks.........
............this weeks quilt stack is in the little vintage style cupboard in my studio.......with little hens on top........
...........i received some happy mail this week....some beautiful belle and boo easter fabric arrived which they have  kindly gifted to me to play with.......so inspiring and perfect for little easter makes....will show you some soon...........
.....we had an outing to wales this week.....and below are some car pictures of the rolling welsh hills under a welcoming blue sky......
..........and while we were there we went to a craft centre and saw a weaving exhibition....but more about that another time......it was a lovely day.......

Candy eggs and flowers inside and out - feels like Spring around your place. We have deep snow. A lot of bunny tracks around our son's basement bedroom window. I think our spirea bush has made this bunny a warm place to be :)! Have a blessed weekend, Helen!

Happy February back to you! Your post today is so inspirational.... it makes me want to start cutting out hearts! I love your heart blocks and all the beautiful colors. Am anxious to see what you make from that cute new fabric.... and love the little chickens on top of the pretty white cabinet. Oh how I love white cabinets full of pretty quilts! Your drive looked so pretty... for a minute it looked just like where I lived in Washington State, driving to the mountains! Good memories! Hugs.. Marilyn
