Lots of winter weather here this morning...so things are moving a little slow...but had a finish to share...my crocheted baby snuggler and hat are complete!!! I finished them last night and am eager to gift them...
Now it is time to start another baby gift for a friend of mine who is having number 5 (yeah!!! I love starting new projects) and I need to finish the Farmall quilt I am making for my baby boy who will be 12 years old this month (so hard to believe)...
Enjoy your Wednesday!

As, winter comes, as winters must, we breathe our last, return to dust; still held in Christ, our souls take wing and trust the promise of the spring.

Happy Monday!  Just wanted to share a project in the making.... a special blanket for a special baby...over half way complete...can't wait to work on the border....loving the coral pink and grey colors...and there is something about yarn and a crochet hook to calm the soul and ease the mind...

The other project to share is the inspiration for another WIP , a crib size quilt, called Bless the Beasts and the Children...this little bunny pincushion just seemed to need to be included in another project and needed some friends...pics of the quilt to come...anyway here is the pincushion...
super fun and easy to make with just a couple of charm squares and scraps of wool... oh how I love Spring.

O Blessed Spring where Word and sign embrace us into Christ the Vine: here Christ enjoys each one to be a branch of this life giving Tree.
