This bluebird is the latest trend in tree bling in my neck of the woods. I got this shot from my window over the kitchen sink.
I've been working on
this shawl once again. I started it over a year ago, but I ran out of yarn, and had to wait to finish it till I tracked down some of the same lot number. Just about four more motifs, and I'll be able to attach this edging to the shawl.
Also, I've been working on a new spring purse. I'd never sewn one before so...
I picked out some fabric and gave it a whirl...
A look inside...
Here's the final look. It matches several of my summer outfits so I'm pleased with it. I used a printout for the free pattern I found over at the
Sew Mama Sew! blog.
Yard bling, I feel very rich, indeed.
Hope y'all have a wonderful week!

Hello from Michigan, Love the photos of the Bluebird and Robin hopefully we will see them soon too. Your New Spring Purse is very pretty and is your shawl. Hugs Judy
Your new purse is awesome! Love the fabric choices...you did a great job and I'm sure you'll get lots of compliments. Can't wait to see your finished shawl. Sure looks like spring in your neck of the woods! We are getting a bit closer. We just have a few snow piles left. I'll be one happy camper once all the snow is gone :) Enjoy the rest of your weekend :)
glad to see those bluebirds !
I hope they raise a flock of babies !
They are my favorite bird !
Found a confederate violet blooming in the back yard today !
also found briars,chickweed ,honeysuckle, fake strawberry weed, hedge, crab grass, hackberry trees
and lots of other unwanted weeds !
What a beautiful purse! I can just imagine carrying that along on a warm summer's day and feeling so happy.
Your yard bling is lovely indeed.
I love seeing and hearing the birds signifying spring is almost here!
I happened to see my spring flowers are all poking through the ground. I am really looking forward to seeing them bloom!
Blessings~

I can't wait to see that shawl! It must be modeled and duly posted O.o
I need to print out this post and hang it on the fridge, looking at your purse keeps me excited about mine. I know, yes, get off the computer and go get the shamrock apron done so I can make my purse. I am:D
Home Depot is selling pots of plain old yard violets for 9.98 !
Hope you are enjoying a beautiful week.
