TIME TO WELCOME SOME SPRING FLOWERS

 March means getting some spring table runners out and changing out some of the wall hangings to Springier items too.  Not so spring like in our neck of the woods.  Our area has been in a severe drought situations for a number of years.  Well, this year we are getting plenty of rain and very cool weather too.  While some might think that 17 inches since October isn't much to be thrilled about, it surely is better than the 3 inches we have gotten over the last few years.  

I started looking for some spring table runners and decided there wasn't much very interesting to set out on the table.  Time to make something and get it finished up quickly.  I had used this particular pattern before so got busy and hopefully will have it done this coming week.  And I do plan to try out my skills with FMQ.  I have been working on it and not perfect yet, but getting better.   
I originally made it in this smaller size in more fall colors.  This one was hand appliquéd.  No time for that so the new one is machine appliquéd with a blanket stitch.  
Our little pup Zoey was 2 years old on the 7th.  Her birthday gift was that huge bone.  She loves them, and yes a pretty large treat for a little 8 pound dog.  She will probably have it gone within a week and we do limit her to just an hour each evening.  There are some pretty good choppers in that little mouth.

  4. You have some lovely spring flowers. Our dog loves those large bones too. She is a lab and can consume one of those things in an afternoon! We don't buy them often, but they are, indeed, a very special treat.

  5. Adorable spring runner! I have a couple of Easter runners, but haven't put them out yet. I've been gone so much lately that it just hasn't happened.

  12. I like both table runners. I'm not sure where you live, but I used to live where 6" was a windfall of rain in a year, so I understand be excited about 17"! In TN, we might get 17" in 2 months (maybe in one some years!) but it never gets old to a desert rat! Your dog is cute as anything.
