Easter eggs...

Just look at these... Amazing....



They are from Edyta Sitar...here is what she says...
My girls tried something new this year for coloring our eggs, we wrapped them in pieces of old silk ties, then boiled them in a water/vinegar solution to cook.




I'm gonna have to try this! They are beautiful!

Fresh picked...

This is a test to see if I fixed the picture problem...
Fresh picked yesterday from Marie's house... These are the best oranges... EVER!

Marge...

We have a wonderful lady that works in our district... She just found out she has stage 4 ovarian cancer. Very sad indeed. She was just at our school like 2 weeks ago.
Since I was asked to "fill in" for the social committee person while she is out.. It was up to me to figure out what we should do. ( in yrs passed.. There has never been activity except for normal happenings.. Xmas, end of the year parties, etc) since I have been in this position within the last 4 weeks, there have been 6 happenings! Yes 6!
So....
Here is what we did..



A quilt was made....


This quilt shown above was quilted with apples on it. The backing is a light colored one. So, I had all the teachers sign their name or a little message on the back. I should have taken a close up of it, but we were in a hurry to deliver it yesterday.
It was wonderful..if you can't read the little message at the bottom it says..
"A quilt will warm your body and comfort your soul"
So, Marge Baker, I hope you are enjoying your quilt and keeping you warm through this rough time.

#2...

Words of wisdom.... A wool project...all hand stitched down.


This was a BOM (block of the month) from Primitive Gatherings. It's hard to tell, but each block has a "word" on it. Courage, kindness, love, etc...


- And, then we have a label... Simple label, but it's labeled..
