It is time to change out the quilts.
I am scooping up all of the bunnies and Easter decor and changing things out. Hippety Hop! Hippety Hop! Off to the totes the bunnies go! 
For early Spring, I had a few quilts hanging on vintage shutters in the small foyer.
Front and center was my Easter quilt . Eeeh ! This was it's first year on display.
This is one quilt that I thought I would never finish, but by golly, last year I "quilted across the finishing line". I was happier that an Easter rabbit with a basket full of eggs!  |
| This quilt is made up of 2" squares. |

| The Easter quilt was quilted with the Baptist Fan pattern. |
Another quilt that I had on display was "Garden Blooms" which is a design from Piece o' Cake. It originally was published in 2008 in the "American Patchwork & Quilting" magazine. Becky Goldsmith still has it for sale as a downloadable in her shop.
The 3rd quilt is a top that I will show in the near future. It is made from reproduction Depression Era fabrics.
So what am I changing over to next?
Eeeeh! STRAWBERRIES!
It is Strawberry Season here in my neck of the woods. Many of you know that I have a strong affection for anything "strawberry related" since my family owned a " U-Pick / We Pick Strawberry Farm" years ago.
The foyer is filled with strawberries galore.
Of course, I started decorating by draping quilts over my 3 vintage shutters.
My Berry Season mini quilt is the 2nd quilt on display. I shared the Berry Season Doodles a few years ago. I stitched the little berry designs in DMC 498. I think it is berry cute- well at least in my eyes.
Because I am decorating the foyer in reds and yellows, I pulled out my Spring Chicks Quilt which I completed in March of 2021. 
Those little chicks always make me smile. Plus they remind me of how we used to buy the oldest grandson chickens every year. He loves chickens. I may have told you that Mr. Pinker nicknamed our grandson "Rooster" when he was a babe. LOL.
The 1869 Spring Chick Crock was inspired by the Spring Chick quilt. Like I said I do love chickens. 🐓🐓🐓

In the coming days, I will share more photos of the strawberry decor and of course stitching and quilt pieces that I am putting on display. I don't know if you are like me , but not only do I love to see quilting and stitching, but I LOVE seeing how they are used and displayed. Seeing displays give me ideas and I need all of the help I can get. Hee! Hee!
As Always...
Happy Stitching and Quilting,y'all Melisa
