My daughter was here for the past week and she and Finn went home yesterday. It was nice to have her here. Finn was very excited to see her. He loves it when all of us are together. I did a little bit of cross stitch this past week, but no machine sewing. I finished the framing stitches and added more sky stitches as well. I hope to do more today.
My daughter worked on her crochet while she was here, adding this pretty periwinkle lace border. If you look at the close up, you can see flowers in it. There are still a few more rows to crochet on this but she is afraid she will run out of this colour so has ordered more.
Finn and I spent some time outside one day, reading and enjoying the sunshine. The Berry Pickers is the next book club book and we meet this Thursday to discuss it so I have some reading to do!
The redbud tree is in bloom in the backyard.
Two more varieties of tulips bloomed this week. Both of these have very short but colourful trumpets.
This type of coral bells has beautiful leaves and not so spectacular flowers.
This tree is in bloom in my neighbourhood. So pretty.
My daughter was in Newfoundland in February and went to the quilt store in St. John's and bought these FQ's for me. We were in this store when my husband and I were there in 2023.
I will link up with Frederique and Kathy. Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers, and nurturing women in your lives.
