A Basket of Spring- A Spring Freebie

Good afternoon, ya'll. The flowers are blooming, the bees are buzzing and the birds are chirping.

It's another beautiful Spring Day.

Spring Stamp and Bunny Hop  , the wool applique a freebie from  Shabby Fabrics 

              

  I have been planting seeds , pulling weeds and in the evenings - Eeeeh ! It's baseball time! The grandbabies are playing spring ball. Last night the boys had 3 games . Tonight there will be another . 

Here and there I have been stitching .

 

Today, I worked on fully finishing " A Basket of Spring" . It is 2nd in the mini basket series. 

This is Buford Bunny ( You may see him again). He is nestled in a basket munching on a carrot underneath some blooms. Virginia the Bluebird sits patiently on one of the stems.   I bet she is waiting for a snack for herself.

Well any whoo.  I finished it as a round with a  jute hoop so it can be hung as an ornament. My plan is to display it on this basket though.

     I bought the basket at the Goodwill for a dollar. The great thing about the basket is I can store the pieces in it.

A Basket for Ewe - A St. Patrick's Day Freebie

It is a Fantabulous Friday!!  Welcome , sweetie pies.  Oh my , how this week has flown by.  Do you have anything special planned for the weekend? The grandkids are all excited because they are having a 4 day holiday- today they are off for Staff Development and Monday is President's Day.  No grand plans for me, but I do need to put the pedal to the metal and work on some quilt blocks. 

It's that time of the year -  when my sheep obsession goes into full force.  Today I have a little Basket for Ewe .

  A small brown basket with a sheep and shamrocks.  

Two of my loves checked off in this stitch 

✅Baskets 

and  

✅Sheep

I finished mine in a little round disc and  added a loop so that it can be hung as an ornament or placed on a basket like I have done here.  As an after thought, I added some buttons ( I originally was going to make the piece a smaller circle but opted for the bigger one thinking I might mount it on a tart pan.)

 

It is a small only measuring 42 x 38 .  

It looks cute paired with Erin Ewe.
