See me sitting pretty like a big girl?
A lace sweater I made for I'mani. Borrowed a lace carriage, then bought a new knitting machine to have my own lace carriage.

Your fairy is called Feather Saturnfilter
She is a trouble maker.
She lives in high places where the clouds meet the earth.
She is only seen on midsummer's eve.
She wears pale blue like the sky. She has delicate pale pink wings like a cicada.

Baby I'mani A'yana was born in Germany on March 13 at 1:17AM. She was 5 lbs 12 oz and 18 inches. Her name means beautiful faithful flower in Swahalii. She sure is. We can hardly wait to see her in person.
Scott and Sue at Stephanie and Chris's wedding in Arizona. The wedding was beautiful.
Scott and Sue in Sedona. The scenery is beautiful.
We had a great time.

These are pictures of the crazy quilt wedding purse I made for my niece's wedding. She will be married in Arizona in three days. DH and I are flying to Phoenix in two days for the wedding and then on to Sedona for a much needed R & R.

This is my block for my color purple RR. I am in the "Purple People Eaters." Five different people will each have a chance to embellish two seams and a patch over the next six months.

I went to embellish the first half of my spring block and could not locate it. Faster to make a new block and then, hopefully, the first one will show up.
