Start of Spring

Finally, its Spring around here! Love the smell of cut grass and the sight of freshly planted flowers, the neighborhood is looking so nice. One of these days I will turn my thumbs green and plant some flowers in my landscape, but for now the Hawthorne bushes and shrubs will have to do. I did however make some super cute and spring'y pillows for my porch.....

Super fun and cute spring like fabric

Softball Blanket

It's finally here, the start of softball season!! Last season Pirates (yes we are green this season) were undefeated, and "argh" we kicked a lot of booty! haha. Hoping this season is as eventful and fun as all the past seasons.

I really enjoy making these rag quilts, so i figured i would throw together a Pirates softball girly inspired blanket, but make a light and soft version since the cold is well behind us and its on to spring (well, i guess more like summer around here since it just seems to get so HOT!) I used the awesomely soft dot material for the back, which i have yet to do seeing as its so stinking expensive and rarely is on sale...but finally it was 50% off so i couldnt pass up getting it!!

I believe this is my favorite blanket i have made yet, next to my Halloween one of course!! ;o)
