My Happy Quilty Place Today

Quilting my white lily today!

This Sweet Lily Block is a pattern by

Sedef Imer @ Down Grapevine Lane

This is going to be a cushion cover.

Here is the back in progress.

The back of the cushion is my own design.

I love making snap closures on my cushion covers.

Maestro is helping me bind my cushion cover.

It is sunny here today.

I woke to the sweet sounds of a robin calling outside my window.

I love these harbingers of spring.

Usually they do not return until March.

Although it is cold, most of our snow is gone and it feels like winter is losing its grip.

Looking forward to spring!

There is so much beautiful inspiration in the

Have you ever stitched anything like this?
