A quilt for a friend

This is my neighbor and friend, Alice, who is completing her 3rd quilt. This quilt is for her friend who soon will retire. Alice has sewn all the blocks by hand, and is now going to quilt it by hand. She has done a wonderful job with the quilt, and I got to see it in the making. How exciting!

Peony

These are the first blooms of our Peony in the garden. Such a lovely soft pink color and the fragrance is divine. Because I didn't stake the blooms, they were lying on the ground, so I had to cut them and bring them inside. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Oxalis

Our oxalis are blooming their little "hearts" out! I just love these little flowers. They make me smile.
